This method transforms nitroarenes into aryl boronic esters under mild conditions, suggesting practical utility.
We describe a straightforward light-driven strategy for transforming nitroarenes to aryl boronic esters. This transformation proceeds under mild conditions at ambient temperature and tolerates a wide variety of functional groups. The approach offers an operationally simple and practical alternative for preparing aryl boronic esters directly from nitroarenes, which are readily available and inexpensive starting materials.
