The invention relates to the technical field of organic synthetic
chemistry, and discloses a preparation method of alkenyl gem-diborate. According to the preparation method of the alkenyl gem-diborate, a
cobalt catalyst serves as a core, a high-activity
cobalt complex is formed under the combined action of a specific ionic N-heterocyclic
carbene ligand and alkali, the complex can be reduced into a catalytic activity intermediate by a
boron test, regeneration of the
cobalt catalyst is achieved, and the next round of reaction continues to be catalyzed. The adopted
cobalt catalyst is rich in reserves, low in price, easy to obtain and environment-friendly;
reaction conditions are mild, and high efficiency and
high selectivity are achieved; the reaction substrate functional group tolerance is high, the substrate source is wide, the method is suitable for aromatic
alkyne, and aliphatic
alkyne and
alkyne with large steric hindrance can also be adopted; the reaction can be amplified to a
gram scale for preparation; the yield, the selectivity and the purity of the product are improved; the invention provides a new synthesis
route and method for alkenyl gem-diborates, and can provide alkenyl gem-diborates with various structures for synthesis of polysubstituted olefins, natural products or pharmaceutical molecules.
