1,2‐Boronate Rearrangement: An Efficient Tool for the Opening, Functionalization and Formation of Strained Cycles
Rémi Blieck, Aurélien de la Torre
Abstract
Abstract The 1,2‐metallate rearrangement occurring with boronate complexes is a strategy of choice for the synthesis of organoboron compounds, giving a direct access to highly functionalized molecules. Lately, significant progress has been made in the use of this reaction for the opening, the functionalization, and the formation of strained cycles. In this review, we will highlight these recent advances, focusing on cycloalkanes and oxygen‐ or nitrogen‐containing strained cycles.
