Organoboranes

Organoboranes are chemical compounds that contain a bond between boron and carbon atoms. They are valuable in organic chemistry because they can be used as building blocks or reagents to create a wide variety of other compounds, including pharmaceuticals and materials. Their reactivity allows chemists to selectively modify molecules, making them useful in complex synthesis processes. Organoboranes are often made through reactions involving boron compounds and are key intermediates in methods like the Suzuki coupling, which helps connect different organic groups efficiently. They play an important role in advancing chemical research and manufacturing.
