6-Cyanobenzo[<i>b</i>]furan-2-boronic acid pinacol ester (<b>10</b>) is a potentially useful 2-point scaffold for the construction of specific compounds or compound libraries with benzofuran cores. Using a per-iodination/de-iodination strategy coupled with a Sonogashira alkynylation and Cu-catalyzed heteroannulation, we have developed a procedure that allows the preparation of benzo[<i>b</i>]furan-6-carbonitrile (<b>9</b>) and 6-cyanobenzo[<i>b</i>]furan-2-boronic acid pinacol ester (<b>10</b>) ...[more]
