Strategies have been reported to synthesize (E)-4-aryl-but-2-en-l- ols with high selectivity. However, there is no method to obtain (Z)-4-aryl-but-2-en-1-ols with high selectivity now. We developed a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of 1,2-oxaborol-2(5H)-ols with benzyl bromides to synthesize (Z)-4-aryl-but-2-en-1-ols, the products were obtained in up to 94% isolated yield.展开更多
