The chemistry of organoborates. Part III. Protonation of trialkylcyanoborates
Abstract
Protonation of trialkylcyanoborates in bis-(2-methoxyethyl) ether (diglyme) leads to migration of two alkyl groups from boron to carbon and the production of derivatives of 1,4-diaza-2,5-diboracyclohexane. On oxidation, these compounds yield ketones.
