Hail boration! 2-Dimethylaminopyridine-ligated dihaloborocations [X2B(2-DMAP)](+) with a strained four-membered boracycle were used for the haloboration of terminal and dialkyl internal alkynes (see scheme). Esterification then provided vinyl boronate esters as useful precursors to tetrasubstituted alkenes. Following mechanistic studies, scope was expanded simply by variation amine. Pin = 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-butanedioxy.

(NHC)2FeCl2 complexes undergo methoxide transfer in preference to aryl from [(Aryl)B(OR)3]−, while addition of ArylBY2 (Y = Cl, OR) (NHC)Fe–methoxide compounds leads only formation (NHC)BY2Aryl. The PhBCl2 (NHC)2FeX2 is introduced as a method for probing NHC dissociation iron. Two expanded ring NHCs also iron the respective complexes.
