Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>Platinum nanoparticles supported on titania efficiently catalyzed the diboration of alkynes and alkenes under solvent‐ and ligand‐free conditions in air. The <italic>cis</italic>‐1, 2‐diborylalkenes and 1, 2‐diborylalkanes were obtained in moderate to excellent yields following, in most cases, a simple filtration workup protocol. The versatility of the <italic>cis</italic>‐1, 2‐diboronvinyl compounds was demonstrated in a series of organic transformations, including the Suzuki–Miyaura cross coupling and the boron–halogen exchange.</p> </abstract>
