Front Cover: Deoxygenative Radical Boration of Inert Amides via a Combination of Relay and Cooperative Catalysis (Chem. Eur. J. 35/2023)

Graphical Abstract

From substrates to products. Just as boats make crossing from one side of a river to the other possible, a suitable catalytic system allows access to difficult or unattainable transformations. An unprecedented reductive boration of amides is achieved through a triple iridium–photoredox–organocatalysis system, affording valuable α-amino boron products.
