Abstract

Abstract Trialkylboranes derived from terminal, cyclic and bicyclic olefins via hydroboration with 5 mole percent excess borane undergo ready redistribution with boron trichloride at 110 to give the corresponding alkyldichloroboranes, providing a convenient synthesis of such derivatives. On the other hand, trialkylboranes derived from internal olefins, such as 3- hexene, undergo this reaction more sluggishly and produce products in which the boron ...
