When using a substrate bearing a carbamate as the leaving group and an OTBS group at the β position, β-elimination competes with 1,2-migration with a ratio of 1:3; see the Supporting Information for details.

22. The selective homologation of 1,2-bis(catechol boronic esters) with TMSCHN2has been reported; see: M. Kalendra, R. A. Dueñes, J. P. Morken, Synlett 2005, 1749–1751. However, we have shown that the corresponding 1,2-bis(pinacol boronic esters), which are less electrophilic, do not react with TMSCHN2; see the Supporting Information for details.
23. Selective reactivity has been reported in the context of Suzuki–Miyaura coupling and carbonyl allylation; see:
