Alfa Aesar, a Johnson Matthey company, has published a new 56-page technical document that outlines the chemical properties and highlights the main synthetic uses of boronic acids and related chemicals. Organoboron compounds play a major role in modern chemistry, and boronic acids have emerged in a leading position.
With the discovery of a wealth of new chemistry, in particular the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction, together with their accessibility and ease of handling, boronic acids and boronates are now established as intermediates of value and versatility. Applications are in synthesis, catalysis, analytical chemistry and biological systems.
The new publication outlines the chemical properties and highlights the main synthetic uses of these versatile molecules. The brochure also includes a listing of the Alfa Aesar range of boronic acids, boronic esters, oxazaborolidine reagents, coupling and hydroboration catalysts, phosphine ligands, and boronylation reagents.
