TCI Practical Example: Hartwig-Miyaura C-H Borylation Using an Iridium Catalyst
We are proud to present the C-H borylation of benzodithiophene using [Ir(cod)OMe]2 as a catalyst. The direct borylation of aromatic compounds proceeds in combination with a catalyst and an electron-donating bpy ligand.

Procedure
-
A solution of dtbpy (27 mg, 0.05 mmol), bis(pinacolato)diboron (1.0 g, 4.0 mmol) and [Ir(cod)OMe]2 (33 mg, 0.025 mmol) in cyclohexane (40 mL) was stirred under nitrogen at room temperature for 10 minutes. Benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene (380 mg, 2.0 mmol) was added to the mixture and stirred at 80 ˚C for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was quenched with water and the two layers were separated, and then the water phase was extracted with dichloromethane. The organic phase was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the crude was washed with methanol (20 mL) to give 1 as a white solid (0.771 g, 87% yield).
