Synthesis of Vinyl Boronates from Aldehydes by a Practical Boron–Wittig Reaction

Abstract
A highly stereoselective boron-Wittig reaction between stable and readily accessible 1,1-bis(pinacolboronates) and aldehydes furnishes a variety of synthetically useful di- and trisubstituted vinyl boronate esters.
