Several articles report the use of catecholborane as mediator for stereodirected synthesis. Among products are many boron-free compounds. But, when catecholborane is treated with an alkyne/alkene, usually a terminal alk-e/y-ne, through hydroboration a trans vinylborane is formed... Do you know another synthesis pathways to try the synthesis of new boron-containing compounds?
