Abstract

Reported here is the iridium-catalyzed regio- and enantio selective secondary benzylic C-H borylation using benzothiazole as the directing group. Various monosubstituted 2-arylalkylbenzo[ d ]thiazole were well-tolerated, affording the corresponding products in moderate to good yields with good enantioselectivity. The C-B bond in one boryl ated product could undergo stereospecific transformations to form a series of C-C and C-heteroatom bonds.
