Tetraalkoxydiborons can be easily prepared by acid-catalyzed reactions of tetrahydroxydiboron or its anhydride with trialkyl orthoformates. Addition of diols to these reaction mixtures afforded diboron diolates in high yield. In both cases, removal of volatile byproducts is all that is required for the isolation of the diboron. These methods constitute a convenient alternative to previous preparations from tetrakis (dimethylamino) diboron and tetrahydroxydiboron.
四烷氧基二硼可通过四羟基二硼或其酸酐与原甲酸三烷基酯的酸催化反应轻松制备。向这些反应混合物中加入二醇可高产率地得到二硼酸二醇酯。在这两种情况下,分离二硼所需的只是除去挥发性副产物。这些方法是以前用四(二甲氨基)二硼和四羟基二硼制备方法的便捷替代方法。
