General description

Dibutylboryl trifluoromethanesulfonate (Dibutylboron triflate, Bu2BOTf) is an organometallic reagent. It efficiently promotes the1,4-addition of benzylic and allylic organocopper reagents.[1]

Application

Dibutylboryl trifluoromethanesulfonate may be used in the following studies:
  • Stereo- and regio-selective synthesis of erythro aldols.[2]
  • As a promoter for the solution and polymer-supported trichloroacetimidate-based glycosylations.[1]
  • Synthesis of β-alkoxy carbonyl compounds via one-step Mukaiyama aldol-type reaction.[3]
  • Aldol-type cyclization for the stereoselective synthesis of cyclic ethers.[4]
  • As a reagent for the formation of boron enolates.[5]
  • As a complexation aid for the isolation of 1-acyldipyrromethanes.[6]
  • 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.[7]

1-Acyldipyrromethanes are important precursors in rational syntheses of diverse porphyrinic compounds. 1-Acyldipyrromethanes are difficult to purify, typically streaking upon chromatography and giving amorphous powders upon attempted crystallization. A solution to this problem has been achieved by reacting the 1-acyldipyrromethane with
