Herein, we report an efficient regioselective protoboration of the terminal alkynes catalyzed by newly synthesized silylene-copper(I)-aryl complexes. This method offers a broad substrate scope, good functional-group compatibility, and a gram-scale synthetic ability. The insight into the mechanistic cycle is also provided with the support of experimental and theoretical studies.
To support increased transparency, we offer authors the option to publish the peer review history alongside their article.
