General description

Dibutylboryl trifluoromethanesulfonate (Dibutylboron triflate, Bu2BOTf) is an organometallic reagent. It efficiently promotes the1,4-addition of benzylic and allylic organocopper reagents.

Application

Dibutylboryl trifluoromethanesulfonate may be used in the following studies:
  • Stereo- and regio-selective synthesis of erythro aldols.
  • As a promoter for the solution and polymer-supported trichloroacetimidate-based glycosylations.
  • Synthesis of β-alkoxy carbonyl compounds via one-step Mukaiyama aldol-type reaction.
  • Aldol-type cyclization for the stereoselective synthesis of cyclic ethers.
  • As a reagent for the formation of boron enolates.
  • As a complexation aid for the isolation of 1-acyldipyrromethanes.
  • As a promoter in [1,2]-Wittig reaction between aldehydes and O-benzyl or O-allyl glycolate esters, creating two contiguous stereocenters (1,2-diol) in good yield without the need for strong base.

A boron-mediated syn- and anti-stereoselective aldol reaction giving rise to various beta-hydroxyenones was coupled to a Pd((II))-mediated oxidative cyclization to give 2,3,6-trisubstituted syn- and anti-dihydropyranones in good yields. The Pd((II))-mediated oxidative cyclization was expanded to alpha-hydroxyenones leading to furan-3(2H)-one derivatives

[reaction: see text] Dibutylboron triflate/diisopropylethylamine mediated aldol-type cyclization provides an expedient route for the stereoselective synthesis of cyclic ethers in a single step. The method is highly efficient for the stereoselective synthesis of 4-cis-tetrahydropyranones. The reaction is proposed to proceed
