Mild and rapid hydroxylation of aryl/heteroaryl boronic acids and boronate esters with N-oxides.

ABSTRACT: Aryl and heteroaryl boronic acids and boronate esters are rapidly, often within minutes, transformed into the corresponding phenols by N-oxides in an open flask at ambient temperature. This transformation has broad compatibility with a variety of functional groups.
