title: Silver-catalyzed highly regioselective formal hydroboration of alkynes.
abstract: A silver(I)-N-heterocyclic carbene complex has proven to be a potent catalyst for formal hydroboration of alkynes, providing a variety of borylalkenes in regio- and stereoselective manners. Under the silver catalysis, allenes also undergo regioselective hydroboration to give borylalkenes.
