Abstract

Tris (ethylenedioxybory1) methane reacts with methyllithium at-78" C in THF to form lithium bis (ethy1-enedioxyboryl) methide, which reacts with aldehydes and ketones to form 1- alkene-1-boronic esters. These need not be isolated for efficient oxidation by sodium perborate to the homologated aldehydes, which are easily purified. Systematic investigation of the reaction conditions to optimize yields at each step was undertaken. Possibly ...
