What is CATECHOLBORANE?

Chemical properties

CATECHOLBORANE is clear colorless solution

The Uses of CATECHOLBORANE

CATECHOLBORANE is used in the transition metal catalyzed hydroboration of alkenes.1,2,3

The Uses of CATECHOLBORANE

Catecholborane is used to prepare B-alkylcatecholboranes. It finds application for the preparation of amides and macrocyclic lactams from carboxylic acids. It is used as a stereoselective reducing agent to convert beta-hydroxy ketones to syn 1,3-diols. Further, it reacts with alkyne through hydroboration to form trans vinyl borane, which is a precursor to Suzuki reaction.

Purification Methods

It is a moisture-sensitive flammable liquid which is purified by distillation in a vacuum under a N2 atmosphere and stored under N2 at 0-4o. It liberates H2 when added to H2O or MeOH. A solution in THF, after 25hours at 25o, has residual hydride of 95% (under N2) and 80% (under air) [Brown & Gupta J Am Chem Soc 97 5249 1975].
