Boronic acid derivatives have become ubiquitous in chemical synthesis, and can be conveniently synthesised by transition-metal-catalysed hydroboration of a...
The use of transition metals to catalyse the addition of hydridoboranes to unsaturated organic molecules was initially realised several decades ago. Although this area of chemistry received considerable attention at the time, interest in...
Chemists tend to use transition metal hydride complexes rather than thiolate complexes to catalyse chemical transformations because the hydride complexes p...

4,4,5,5-Tetraphenyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (HBBzpin, 3) has been prepared in high yield by the addition of H3B-SMe2 to benzopinacol. HBBzpin is a relatively s...
Over the past decade, transition metal complexes of boron have become established as the fourth class of compounds involving direct metal–boron interactions. In contrast to the other three major groups in this field, i.e. borides, metal...
