New Boronic Acids Brochure Oct 17, 2008

A new 56-page technical document which outlines the chemical properties and highlights the main synthetic uses of boronic acids and related chemicals is now available from Alfa Aesar.

A major role in modern chemistry is played by organoboron compounds, among which boronic acids have emerged in a leading position. With the discovery of a wealth of new chemistry, in particular the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction, together with their accessibility and ease of handling, boronic acids and boronates are now established as intermediates of great value and versatility. Applications abound in synthesis, catalysis, analytical chemistry and biological systems.

With a recently expanded range of well over 500 boronic acids, esters and organotrifluoroborates, Alfa Aesar can provide outstanding synthetic and analytical expertise in these products.
