Abstract

Hydroboration of fluorinated styrenes with common hydroborating agents results in polymerization. However, regioselective hydroboration has been achieved by utilizing iodoborane-dimethyl sulfide. A series of fluorinated β-phenethyl alcohols and amines were synthesized via this methodology.
