title: Fluoride protects boronic acids in the copper(I)-mediated click reaction.
abstract: Fluoride has been found to protect boronic acids from copper(i)-mediated decomposition; such findings should be very useful for the preparation of boronic acid-based carbohydrate sensors and boronic acid conjugates using the copper(i)-mediated click reaction.
