The use of transition metals to catalyse the addition of hydridoboranes to unsaturated
organic molecules was initially realised several decades ago. Although this area of …

Organoboron reagents represent a unique class of compounds because of their utility in
modern synthetic organic chemistry, often affording unprecedented reactivity. The …

The addition of X3Si–H or X2B–H (X= H, OR or R) across a C–C multiple bond is a well-
established method for incorporating silane or borane groups, respectively, into …

Cobalt has become increasingly attractive in homogeneous catalysis because of its unique
characteristics and outstanding catalytic performance in addition to being cheap and earth …

The distant and selective activation of unreactive C–H and C–C bonds remains one of the
biggest challenges in organic chemistry. In recent years, the development of remote …

Exploiting the reactivity of one functional group within a molecule to generate a reaction at a
different position is an ongoing challenge in organic synthesis. Effective remote …

Alkenylboranes have been vital reagents in modern synthetic organic chemistry, whose
carbon–boron bond is transformable into a carbon–carbon bond stereoretentively to give …

A bis (imino) pyridine cobalt-catalyzed hydroboration of terminal alkynes with HBPin (Pin=
pinacolate) with high yield and (Z)-selectivity for synthetically valuable vinylboronate esters …

We report the synthesis of cobalt complexes of novel iminopyridine–oxazoline (IPO) ligands
and their application to the asymmetric hydroboration of 1, 1-disubstituted aryl alkenes. The …

Well‐defined manganese complexes based on inexpensive, readily available ligands, 2,
