Abstract
Styrylboronic acid, C8H9BO2, was one of several organoboron compounds investigated for their wood-preservation properties following in sirte polymerization. The structure consists of independent monomeric molec ules bound together by strong hydrogen bonds (BO-H ... O). The planes of the styryl and boronic acid moieties are twisted by 26(1)degrees wi th respect to each other, apparently as a result of the hydrogen-bondi ng requirements.
