Application

6-Bromohexylboronic acid can be used as:
  • A substrate in the radical alkylation reactions of boronic acids using organic photocatalysts.
  • A substrate in the Ag(I) catalyzed difluoromethylthiolation of various boronic acids using S-(difluoromethyl) benzenesulfonothioate.
  • A starting material in the synthesis of fluorescent carbon nanodots applicable in the estimation of tannic acid in wine samples.

Herein we describe an easy one step synthesis of carbon nanodots (C-dots) by thermal carbonization of 6-bromohexylboronic acid using two different amine compounds, polyethyleneglycol bis(3-aminopropyl (PEGA) and 1,2-aminopropane (DPA), at 180 °C in atmospheric oxygen. The as-synthesized C-dots were characterized
