Abstract

The photolysis of aryl iodides in the presence of boron halides results in the formation of arylboron dihalides and diarylboron halides by free-radical substitution reactions. Hydrolysis of the products gives the corresponding boronic and borinic acids. Alkyl iodides and di-iodo- compounds behave in a similar manner. The photolysis and subsequent hydrolysis of mixtures of bromo-or chloro-benzene with boron tribromide also affords boronic acids; the ...
