Significance
Wang and co-workers report a deaminative coupling of α-aminoesters and α-aminoacetonitriles with aryl boronic acids to yield α-aryl esters and nitriles. The reaction shows broad substrate scope and an excellent functional group tolerance.
#
Comment
Electron-withdrawing substituents on the aryl boronic acid promote the reaction as they facilitate the coordination of the electron-rich diazo carbon atom to the electron-deficient boron center.
