Alfa Aesar has released a 56-page technical document that outlines the chemical properties and highlights the main synthetic uses of boronic acids and related chemicals.
A major role in modern chemistry is played by organoboron compounds, among which boronic acids have emerged in a leading position.
With the discovery of a wealth of new chemistry, in particular the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction, together with their accessibility and ease of handling, boronic acids and boronates are now established as intermediates of great value and versatility.
With a recently expanded range of well over 500 boronic acids, esters and organotrifluoroborates, Alfa Aesar can provide synthetic and analytical expertise in these products.
The new publication outlines the chemical properties and highlights the main synthetic uses of these versatile molecules.
The book also includes a listing of the Alfa Aesar range of boronic acids, boronic esters, oxazaborolidine reagents, coupling and hydroboration catalysts, phosphine ligands and boronylation reagents.
