[reaction: see text] Potassium bromo- and iodomethyltrifluoroborates have been prepared via in situ reaction of n-BuLi with dibromo- and diiodomethane, respectively, in the presence of trialkyl borates, followed by treatment with KHF(2). Moreover, a new synthetic method for the preparation

A number of alkynyl pinacolboronates bearing various functional groups were synthesized according to literature methods. These were then stereoselectively reduced to the cis-alkenyl pinacolboronates via hydroboration with dicyclohexylborane followed by chemoselective protodeboronation using acetic acid. Treatment with potassium hydrogen fluoride

E-allylic boronic esters undergo a highly diastereoselective protodeboronation with TBAF⋅3 H(2)O to give Z-trisubstituted alkenes. The selectivity can be switched to give predominantly the E-alkene instead by using KHF(2)/TsOH (see scheme). The utility of the methodology has been illustrated in a
