Abstract

Pt(NBE) 3 and Pt(COD) 2 (NBE = norbornene, COD = 1,5−cyclooctadiene) catalyze the addition of 2,2‘-bis(1,3,2-benzodioxaborole) (CatB−BCat) to α-olefins. The reactions proceed smoothly under ambient conditions to give 1,2-diborylalkanes in high yield, and the catalyst is compatible with common functional groups.
