Employing anilines as nucleophiles in double carbonylation is a longstanding challenge. In this communication, a Mn(III)-promoted double carbonylation of alkylborates or Hantzsch esters with anilines toward the synthesis of α-ketoamides has been developed. By using easily available potassium alkyltrifluoroborates or Hantzsch esters as the starting material, and cheap and non-toxic Mn(OAc)3 ? 2H2O as the promotor, a broad range of alkyl α-ketoamide derivatives were synthesized in moderate to good yields with excellent selectivity.

Visible light photoredox/nickel dual catalysis has been employed in the cross-coupling of acyl chlorides with potassium alkyltrifluoroborates. This protocol, based on single-electron-mediated alkyl transfer, circumvents the restriction of using reactive alkylmetallic nucleophiles in transition-metal-catalyzed acylation and achieves a mild and efficient method for the synthesis of unsymmetrical alkyl ketones. In this approach, a variety of acyl chlorides have been successfully coupled with structurally diverse potassium alkyltrifluoroborates, generating the corresponding ketones with good yields.

The hydrolysis of potassium organotrifluoroborate (RBF3K) reagents to the corresponding boronic acids (RB(OH)2) has been studied in the context of their application in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. The "slow release" strategy in such SM couplings is only viable if there is an appropriate gearing of the hydrolysis rate of the RBF3K reagent with the rate of catalytic turnover. In such cases, the boronic acid RB(OH)2 does not substantially accumulate, thereby minimizing side reactions such as oxidative homocoupling and protodeboronation. The study reveals that the hydrolysis rates (THF, H2O, Cs2CO 3, 55 °C) depend on a number of variables, resulting in complex solvolytic profiles with some RBF3K reagents. For example, those based on p-F-phenyl, naphthyl, furyl, and benzyl moieties are found to require acid catalysis for efficient hydrolysis. This acid-base paradox assures their slow hydrolysis under basic Suzuki-Miyaura coupling conditions. However, partial phase-splitting of the THF/H2O induced by the Cs2CO 3, resulting in a lower pH in the bulk medium, causes the reaction vessel shape, material, size, and stirring rate to have a profound impact on the hydrolysis profile. In contrast, reagents bearing, for example, isopropyl, β-styryl, and anisyl moieties undergo efficient "direct" hydrolysis, resulting in fast release of the boronic acid while reagents bearing, for example, alkynyl or nitrophenyl moieties, hydrolyze extremely slowly. Analysis of B-F bond lengths (DFT) in the intermediate difluoroborane, or the Swain-Lupton resonance parameter (R) of the R group in RBF3K, allows an a priori evaluation of whether an RBF3K reagent will likely engender "fast", "slow", or "very slow" hydrolysis. An exception to this correlation was found with vinyl-BF 3K, this reagent being sufficiently hydrophilic to partition substantially into the predominantly aqueous minor biphase, where it is rapidly hydrolyzed.
