Acids versus Esters

Arylboronic Acids & Esters.

Boron Molecular offers arylboronics in both free-acid and ester formats for your convenience. Esters of boronic acids can be used advantageously depending on the application and, in some situations, are superior and crucial to the success of the synthesis or purification of compounds.

 

Some advantages of the ester analogues of boronic acid include:

  • Easier characterization due to the absence of oligemeric forms

  • Easy purification by chromatography

  • Superior solubility in organic solvents


    Superior reactivity characteristics in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions
