Radical Aryl Migration from Boron to Carbon.

ABSTRACT: Radical aryl migration reactions represent a unique type of organic transformations that involve the intramolecular migration of an aryl group from a carbon or heteroatom to a C- or heteroatom-centered radical through a spirocyclic intermediate. Various elements, including N, O, Si, P, S, Sn, Ge, and Se, have been reported to participate in radical aryl migrations. However, radical aryl migration from a boron center has not been reported to date. In this communication, radical 1,5-aryl migration from boron to carbon in aryl boronate complexes is presented. C-radicals readily generated through radical addition onto alkenyl aryl boronate complexes are shown to engage in 1,5-aryl migration reactions to provide 4-aryl-alkylboronic esters. As boronate complexes can be generated in situ b
