title: Current Trends in the Synthesis of Practically Important Five-Membered Boracarbocycles by Transmetalation of Aluminacarbocycles with Boron Halides
abstract: The data obtained by the authors in the field of chemistry of substituted borolanes and 2,3-dihydro-1H-boroles are summarized. The authors developed a selective method for the synthesis of five-membered boracarbocycles via transmetalation of aluminacarbocycles, obtained by the catalytic cycloalumination of unsaturated compounds (terminal olefins or acetylenes) with AlEt3 in the presence of Cp2ZrCl2 as a catalyst by boron halides (BF3·Et2O, BCl3, and BBr3). Some examples of the use of this approa
