Abstract
Borylation at the benzylic C-H bond of alkylbenzenes with bis(pinacolato)di boron [(Me4C2O2)B-B(O2C2Me4)] or pinacolborane [(Me4C2O2)B-H] was carried o ut at 100 degreesC in the presence of a catalytic amount of 10% Pd/C. The r eaction selectively afforded pinacol benzylboronates in good yields directl y from various alkylbenzenes.
