Organo-boron compoundsS 0040 Unprecedented Use of Silver(I) N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complexes for the Cata-
lytic Preparation of 1,2-Bis(boronate) Esters. — The silver-catalyzed diboration of alkenes (I) with diborane (II) leads selectively to 1,2-bis(boronate) esters (III), that can be easily oxidized to corresponding diols (IV). No asymmetric induction on the reaction products is observed despite the use of the chiral catalyst. — (RAMIREZ, J.; CORBERAN, R.; SANAU, M.; PERIS*, E.; FERNANDEZ, E.; Chem. Commun.
