The invention belongs to the technical field of
organic synthesis, and discloses a method for synthesizing an
alkyl borate compound by taking
allyl alcohol as a substrate, which comprises the following steps: by taking
allyl alcohol as shown in a formula I and bis (pinacolato) diboron as substrates and
cuprous salt as a catalyst, carrying out a reaction on the
allyl alcohol and bis (pinacolato) diboron under the action of alkali, a
proton source and a ligand to obtain the
alkyl borate compound. And reacting in an
organic solvent according to the following reaction formula to obtain the
alkyl borate compound as shown in the formula II. The cuprous is adopted to catalyze the bis (pinacolato) diboron to be coupled with the allyl
alcohol to synthesize the alkyl borate, so that the substrate range is widened, the use of noble metals and strong reducing agents is avoided, redundant
metal wastes are not generated, the
green chemistry concept is met, meanwhile, the reaction steps are remarkably shortened, and the cost can be reduced.
