Rhodium‐Catalyzed Decarbonylative Borylation of Aromatic Thioesters for Facile Diversification of Aromatic Carboxylic Acids

Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: Transformation of aromatic thioesters into arylboronic esters was achieved efficiently using a rhodium catalyst. The broad functional‐group tolerance and mild conditions of the method have allowed for the two‐step decarboxylative borylation of a wide range of aromatic carboxylic acids, including commercially available drugs.
