Publication outlines boronic acid
properties
Alfa Aesar has announced the publication of a new 36-page technical document, which outlines the chemical properties and highlights the main synthetic uses of boronic acids and related chemicals
Within the field of organoboron chemistry, boronic acids have emerged in a leading role, with applications in synthesis, catalysis, analytical chemistry and biological systems The discovery of a wealth of new chemistry, in particular the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction, combined with their accessibility and ease of handling, have established boronic acids and boronates among the most frequently encountered of intermediates

Nearly three decades ago, chemists at Lancaster Synthesis, now incorporated as a part of Alfa Aesar, pioneered the commercial production of a range of boronic acids for research and development use.
Since then, the astonishing growth of interest in this chemistry has been paralleled by an increase in the diversity of examples and commercial sources available.
Claiming a leading position in the market, Alfa Aesar provides outstanding synthetic and analytical expertise in boronic acids, esters and related products.
The new publication discusses the properties and applications of boronic acids and the related chemistry.
The book also includes a listing of the Alfa Aesar range of boronic acids, boronic esters, oxazaborolidine reagents, coupling and hydroboration catalysts, phosphine ligands and boronylation reagents.
