Application
2-Naphthaleneboronic Acid, which contains varying amounts of anhydride, serves a crucial role in catalysis and pharmaceutical manufacturing as an organometallic iridium complex. It is particularly useful in studies of enantioselective rhodium-catalyzed additions, facilitating the conversion of aryl boronic acids and 2,2,2-trifluoroacetophenones into chiral, tertiary trifluoromethyl alcohols. Additionally, it is employed in research involving palladium-catalyzed reactions; specifically, the addition of aryl boronic acids to nitriles results in the formation of aryl ketones, while their reaction with aryloxy nitriles yields benzofurans.
