Deskripsi

Herein, we developed a rhodium-catalyzed reduction of CO with bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2) under atmospheric pressure of CO with silane as the hydride source, gem-diborylmethane [H2C(Bpin)2] as a versatile and fundamental C1 compound can be formed. Notably, this is the first example on transition metal-catalyzed borylation of CO.
