 | | We are also interested in the design and total synthesis of natural products and pharmaceuticals through the use of these novel reagents and catalysts. |
 | | For example, the addition of alkynyllithiums to 9-MeO-9-BBN produces an intermediate methoxyborate complex which is directly coupled to electrophilic substrates without added base or requiring the isolation of the organoborane, a particularly difficult task in these cases. |
