Investigation of cyclization reactions of dicyclohexyl-6-iodo- and -6-tosylhexenylborane. A facile radical cyclization diverted to a rearrangement-cyclization with base.

J. Org. Chem. 74 , 4143-4148, (2009)

Dicyclohexyl-6-iodohexenylborane efficiently undergoes radical cyclization at room temperature using tri-n-butyltin hydride as a hydrogen donor and without the aide of a radical initiator. Efforts to develop environmentally friendly reagents using hypophosphi...
