  • Patent number: 11891408
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the application of lithium 4-methoxyaniline in catalysis of the hydroboration reaction of an imine and a borane. A catalyst, a borane and an imine are successively stirred and mixed until uniform, reacted for 1 to 2 hours, and then exposed to air so as to stop the reaction, and the reaction liquid is subjected to decompression to remove a solvent therein, so as to obtain a borate with different substituents. The lithium 4-methoxyaniline disclosed in the present invention can catalyze the hydroboration reaction of an imine and a borane in a high activity manner at room temperature, wherein the amount of the catalyst is merely 4-5 mol % of the molar amount of the imine, and the yield of the reaction can reach 90% or more. The yield of a borate with different substituents can reach 99% with mild reaction conditions under an optimized condition.

  • Patent number: 11845068
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of n-butyllithium for catalyzing the hydroboration of an imine and a borane. A catalyst, the borane and the imine are sequentially stirred and mixed uniformly, and are reacted for 1-2 h; the mixture is exposed to air to terminate the reaction; and the reaction liquid is subjected to reduced pressure to remove the solvent, so as to obtain a borate with different substituents. The n-butyllithium disclosed in the present invention can be used for catalyzing the hydroboration of the imine and the borane in high activity under room temperature conditions, the amount of the catalyst is only 4-5 mol % of the molar weight of the imine, and the yield of the reaction can reach 90% or more.
