Application

Methylboronic acid can be used as a reagent:
  • In the palladium-catalyzed Stille and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings.
  • In the microwave-heated heterogeneous palladium (Pd)-catalytized reactions.
  • In ruthenium (Ru)-catalyzed silylation reactions
  • To prepare bis(aminotropone) titanium (Ti) catalysts for ethylene polymerizations.
  • In the enantioselective asymmetric bromoaminocyclization and bromoaminocyclization using amino-thiocarbamate catalysts.
  • To prepare common building blocks for pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
  • To prepare chrysin analogs by Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions.
  • To prepare casein kinase I inhibitors.
  • In the divergent C-H functionalizations directed by sulfonamide pharmacophores in drug discovery.
  • In the synthesis of unsymmetrical monosulfides from disulfides via copper-catalyzed coupling with boronic acids.
  • In a palladium-catalyzed coupling with enol tosylates.
  • For derivatizing many carbohydrates and biologically active compounds for GLC analysis.
