An alkynylboronate cycloaddition strategy to functionalised benzyne derivatives

Chem Commun (Camb). 2010 Jul 28;46(28):5154-6. doi: 10.1039/c0cc01345e. Epub 2010 Jun 16.

Abstract

A new approach to benzyne precursors has been developed that involves the [4+2] cycloaddition of trimethylsilyl alkynylboronates with 2-pyrones, followed by oxidation and trifluoromethylsulfonylation of the boronate moiety.
