Hydrogen-Bond-Donor Solvents Enable Catalyst-Free (Radio)-Halogenation and Deuteration of Organoborons.
A hydrogen bond donor solvent assisted (radio)halogenation and deuteration of organoborons has been developed. The reactions exhibited high functional group tolerance and needed only an ambient atmosphere. Most importantly, compared to literature methods, our conditions are more consistent with the principals of green chemistry (e.g., metal-free, strong oxidant-free, more straightforward conditions).
