RESUMO
A method for the use of vinyl epoxides in catalytic allylboration of alkynes is described. This transformation allows for the synthesis of bifunctional skipped dienes bearing both an allylic alcohol and an alkenylboronate from simple starting materials with high regio- and stereoselectivity. These two functionalities provide these products with highly versatile reactivity, as shown by their stereocontrolled conversion into cyclic boron compounds and polyenes.
RESUMO
Copper catalysis allows the direct oxygen alkenylation of dialkyl phosphonates with alkenyl(aryl)iodonium salts with selective transfer of the alkenyl group. This novel methodology proceeds with a wide range of phosphonates under mild conditions and gives straightforward access to valuable enol phosphonates in very good yields.
