Platinum(0)-Catalyzed Diboration of Methylenecyclopropanes with Bis(pinacolato)diboron: A Selective Route to 2,4-Bis(boryl)-1-butenes

Abstract
Platinum(0)-catalyzed diboration of methylenecyclopropanes with bis(pinacolato)diboron [(Me4C2O2)B-B(O2C2Me4)] in toluene selectively provided the corresponding 2,4-bis(boryl)-1-butene and its analogs in good yields through the cleavage of the proximal bond of the cyclopropane ring.
