Phenylboronic acid or benzeneboronic acid, abbreviated as PhB(OH) 2 where Ph is the phenyl group C 6 H 5 - and B(OH) 2 is a boronic acid containing a phenyl substituent and two hydroxyl groups attached to boron. Phenylboronic acid is a white powder and is commonly used in organic synthesis.
It has the formula [(CH 3) 4 C 2 O 2 B] 2; the pinacol groups are sometimes abbreviated as "pin", so the structure is sometimes represented as B 2 pin 2. It is a colourless solid that is soluble in organic solvents. It is a commercially available reagent for making pinacol boronic esters for organic synthesis.
4-Formylphenyl boronic acid crystallizes in colorless needles [2] or is obtained as an odorless, whitish powder, which dissolves little in cold but better in hot water. The compound is quite stable [4] and readily forms dimers and cyclic trimeric anhydrides, which complicate purification and tend to protodeboronize, a secondary reaction that occurs frequently in the Suzuki coupling, with ...
Basic heteroaromatic boronic acids (boronic acids that contain a basic nitrogen atom, such as 2-pyridine boronic acid) display additional protodeboronation mechanisms. [4] A key finding shows the speciation of basic heteroaromatic boronic acids to be analogous to that of simple amino acids , with zwitterionic species forming under neutral pH ...
The mechanism of organotrifluoroborate-based Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions has recently been investigated in detail. The organotrifluoroborate hydrolyses to the corresponding boronic acid in situ, so a boronic acid can be used in place of an organotrifluoroborate, as long as it is added slowly and carefully.

It is a useful reagent in organic synthesis, as a precursor to boronic acids, which are used in Suzuki couplings. These boronic acids are prepared via reaction of the trimethyl borate with Grignard reagents followed by hydrolysis:. [3] [4] ArMgBr + B(OCH 3) 3 → MgBrOCH 3 + ArB(OCH 3) 2 ArB(OCH 3) 2 + 2 H 2 O → ArB(OH) 2 + 2 HOCH 3
Pinacol is a branched alcohol which finds use in organic syntheses. It is a diol that has hydroxyl groups on vicinal carbon atoms. A white solid that melts just above room temperature, pinacol is notable for undergoing the pinacol rearrangement in the presence of acid and for being the namesake of the pinacol coupling reaction .
