title: Metal-free oxidative cross-coupling of diazirines with arylboronic acids.
abstract: We report herein a metal-free cross-coupling of diazirines with arylboronic acids under oxidative conditions. The reaction affords a series of substituted olefins. It is proposed that the interaction between the nitrogen on diazirine with arylboronic acid plays a key role in this transformation.
