Shungube (Candidate) I hereby certify that this statement is correct. Signed …………………………………. Professor Ross S. Robinson (Supervisor) i Abstract Hydroboration is one of the key routes to afford organoborane esters which are versatile intermediate in organic synthesis. Investigations of different hydroborating reagents and catalysts toward hydroboration present alternative to achieve organoborane ester with different stability, selectivity, and yield. Hence, a part of this study was focused on the preparation of heterocyclic hydroborating reagents with a single site available for hydroboration. Four reagents were prepared which included the well-known catecholborane (23) and pinacolborane (24) and the hardly studied 2,3-dihydro-1,3,2-benzodiazaborole (31) and 2,3-dihydro-1,3,2-benzoxazaborole (34). A study to utilize hydroboration to prepare allylic boronic esters using the four hydroborating reagent above was also undertaken. These esters were to be further employed for diastereoselective synthesis of homoallyl alcohols. Unfortunately, study failed after attempts to preparation and extraction these esters such as (Z)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-(3-methylpent-2-en-1-yl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (104) were unsuccessful. The 11B−NMR spectroscopy results indicated the formation of a new signal of boron compound which was assumed as the corresponding esters, however, was never isolated for further evidence. The four hydroboration reagents mentioned above were further investigated for hydroboration with different transition metal catalysts namely Wilkinson’s catalyst (58), dimethyltitanocene ipr 2,6-bis-[1-(2,6-diisopropylphenylimino)ethyl]pyridine iron(ІІ) chloride (( BIP)FeCl2) (79) and Mes 2,6-bis-[1-(2,4,6,-trimethylphenylimino)ethyl]pyridine iron(ІІ) chloride (( BIP)FeCl2) (80). ipr These study indicated the better hydroboration efficiency of the ( BIP)FeCl2 (79) and Mes ( BIP)FeCl2 (80) for the hydroboration with 2,3-dihydro-1,3,2-benzodiazaborole (31) and 2,3-dihydro-1,3,2-benzoxazaborole (34) compared to the Wilkinson’s catalyst (58). Poor reactivity of dimethyltitanoce toward hydroboration was also observed. Furthermore, within this study two boronic esters 2-octyl-1,3,2-benzoxazaboralane (53) and 2-(2-phynylpropyl)-1,3,2-benzoxazaborolane (116) were isolated for the first time. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor Professor Ross S.

    j1 1 Structure, Properties, and Preparation of Boronic Acid Derivatives Overview of Their Reactions and Applications Dennis G. Hall 1.1 Introduction and Historical Background Structurally, boronic acids are trivalent boron-containing organic compounds that possess one carbon-based substituent (i.e., a CÀB bond) and two hydroxyl groups to fill the remaining valences on the boron atom (Figure 1.1). With only six valence electrons and a consequent deficiency of two electrons, the sp2-hybridized boron atom possesses a vacant p-orbital. This low-energy orbital is orthogonal to the three substituents, which are oriented in a trigonal planar geometry. Unlike carbox- ylic acids, their carbon analogues, boronic acids, are not found in nature. These abiotic compounds are derived synthetically from primary sources of boron such as boric acid, which is made by the acidification of borax with carbon dioxide. Borate esters, one of the key precursors of boronic acid derivatives, are made by simple dehydration of boric acid with alcohols. The first preparation and isolation of a boronic acid was reported by Frankland in 1860 [1]. By treating diethylzinc with triethylborate, the highly air-sensitive triethylborane was obtained, and its slow oxidation in ambient air eventually provided ethylboronic acid. Boronic acids are the products of a twofold oxidation of boranes. Their stability to atmospheric oxidation is considerably superior to that of borinic acids, which result from the first oxidation of boranes. The product of a third oxidation of boranes, boric acid, is a very stable and relatively benign compound to humans (Section 1.2.2.3). Their unique properties and reactivity as mild organic Lewis acids, coupled with their stability and ease of handling, are what make boronic acids a particularly attractive class of synthetic intermediates.

Thorpe Activation of diboron reagents: The development of mild conditions for the synthesis of unique organoboron compounds Steven Brandon Thorpe ABSTRACT The first successful synthesis and isolation of a boronic acid was reported in 1860 by Frankland in the pursuit of novel organometallic compounds. For more than a century, further studies of boronic acids were sparsely published. Suzuki and Miyaura jumpstarted the field in 1979 with an innovative carbon-carbon bond forming reaction employing an organoboronic acid and a carbon halide under palladium catalysis. Indeed, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Professor Akira Suzuki, along with Professors Richard Heck and Ei-ichi Negishi, in 2010 for their important contributions in palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling chemistry. Over the last 30 years, reports on organoboron compounds have increased exponentially.

  • Synthetic Studies of Sodium Aminodiboranate Salts with Electron- Withdrawing Substituents
    SYNTHETIC STUDIES OF SODIUM AMINODIBORANATE SALTS WITH ELECTRON- WITHDRAWING SUBSTITUENTS BY CONNOR I. DALY THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Chemistry in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2020 Urbana, Illinois Adviser: Professor Gregory S. Girolami ABSTRACT Magnesium diboride, MgB2, has the highest superconducting critical temperature of all traditional superconductors and is being considered for the fabrication of superconducting integrated circuits that can operate at higher temperatures than analogous niobium alloy circuits. A significant barrier to preparing superconducting MgB2 thin films, however, is that the films must be deposited below 300 °C to prevent Mg from subliming out of the film and causing loss of the superconducting properties. One approach to solve this problem is to prepare low- temperature chemical vapor deposition (CVD) precursors which would enable deposition of MgB2 at temperatures low enough to prevent loss of Mg from the thin film. In chapter 1, we describe the synthesis of three new sodium aminodiboranate salts, Na(BH3)2NRR′, with trimethylsilyl groups on nitrogen. These compounds – sodium N,N-bis- (trimethylsilyl)aminodiboranate, sodium N-trimethylsilylaminodiboranate, and sodium N- methyl-N-trimethylsilylaminodiboranate – were prepared by the reaction of μ-aminodiborane(6) species with sodium hydride. IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and 11B NMR spectra are reported for all of these compounds, along with the crystal structures of N-trimethylsilylaminodiboranate and N- methyl-N-trimethylsilylaminodiboranate. Comparisons of 11B NMR chemical shifts suggest that steric, inductive, and hyperconjugative effects of the substituents on nitrogen are all in competition in these systems.

Virgil Chairman Professor Gregory C. Fu Thesis Supervisor Professor Stephen L. Buchwald ,- , _ ABSTRACT A variety of organotransition metal complexes (M=Rh, Fe, and Ru) were synthesized and their use in catalysis investigated. Our two principal areas of interest were in the directed, catalytic hydroboration of olefins and in nucleophile- catalyzed reactions. Indenylrhodium(olefin)2 (and other Cp-derived rhodium complexes) were utilized in the directed hydroboration reactions. Both iron and ruthenium complexes with n-bound heterocyclic ligands were utilized in the study of nucleophilic catalysis. The directed hydroborations utilized a variety of CpXRh(olefin)2 catalysts. We were interested in exploring ring slippage of the Cp x ligand to access the coordinative unsaturation necessary to accomplish a directed reaction. Generally, a 12 e- transition metal fragment is required for a directed process to occur. In the hydroboration reaction, the olefin ligands of CpXRh(olefin) 2 are rapidly hydroborated, leaving "r 5-CpXRh" as the active catalyst (14 e-).

  • 2 Metal-Catalyzed Borylation of Alkanes and Arenes Via C–H Activation for Synthesis of Boronic Esters
    2 Metal-catalyzed Borylation of Alkanes and Arenes via C–H Activation for Synthesis of Boronic Esters Tatsuo Ishiyama and Norio Miyaura 2.1 Introduction Organoboron derivatives are an important class of compounds that have been uti- lized as synthetic intermediates [1–6], functional molecules [7–9], functional poly- mers [10], 10B carriers for neutron capture therapy [11], and biologically active agents [12]. A traditional method for their synthesis is the alkylation of trialkylborates or haloboranes with organomagnesium or -lithium reagents (transmetalation) [1, 13] or addition of hydroboranes to unsaturated hydrocarbons (hydroboration) [1, 14]. Al- though these methods are now common for large-scale preparations of organoboron compounds, catalyzed reactions are an interesting strategy for obtaining chemo-, re- gio-, and stereoselectivities that differ from those achieved by uncatalyzed reactions. For example, catalyzed hydroboration of alkenes and alkynes [15] with catecholborane (HBcat, cat = O2C6H4) or pinacolborane (HBpin, pin = Me4C2O2) has provided a method for asymmetric hydroboration of alkenes with chiral phosphine-rhodium cat- alysts [16], 1,4-hydroboration of 1,3-dienes [17], trans-hydroboration of terminal alkynes giving (Z)-1-alkenylboronates [18], or diastereoselective hydroboration of cyclic and acyclic allyl alcohol derivatives [19]. A protocol that involves oxidative addi- tion of an H–B bond to a low-valent transition metal has been successfully extended to analogous metal-catalyzed addition reactions of B–B [20], B–S [21], B–Si [22] or B–Sn [23] compounds [15c]. Conversely, cross-coupling reactions of B–B [15c, 20] or B–H [24] reagents with aryl, vinyl, allyl and benzyl halides or trif lates have provided a direct method for the bory- lation of organic electrophiles without using lithium or magnesium intermediates.
