Catalytic borylation of the high-global-warming-potential refrigerant HFC-143a
Luc A. Mauro, Anthony T. Paolo, Cristabella R. Fortna, Josie B. Rojo, Agustin P. Bravo, Eric Sanchez Josa, Elizabeth R. Young, Lisa A. Fredin, David A. VicicTransition-metal complexes were identified that could catalyze the C–H borylations of the high global warming refrigerant HFC-143a. The optimized catalyst could also selectively borylate HFC-143a in the commercial refrigerant blend R-507A.
