One-Step Conversion of Potassium Organotrifluoroborates to Metal Organoborohydrides
No full textThis letter describes
the one-step conversion of heteroatom-substituted
potassium organotrifluoroborates (KRBF<sub>3</sub>) to metal monoorganoborohydrides
(MRBH<sub>3</sub>) using alkali metal aluminum hydrides. The method
tolerates a variety of functional groups, expanding MRBH<sub>3</sub> diversity. Hydride removal with Me<sub>3</sub>SiCl in the presence
of dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) affords the organoborane·DMAP
(RBH<sub>2</sub>·DMAP) adducts
