(2) N–B coordination of a variety of N-LG reagents (LG = Leaving Group) followed by 1,2-C(B–N)-shift triggers C–N bond formation in the absence of transitionmetals. (3) Deoxygenation of nitro and nitroso groups turns them into useful nitrogen electrophiles for amine formation. (4) Acylboron compounds react with N-LG reagents (LG = leaving group) through their carbonyl group to form hemiaminals that evolve to amides.This tutorial review describes recent developments in carbon–nitrogen bond-forming reactions (amination, amidation, nitration and nitrosation) that involve the use of boronic acids and some of their derivatives as carbon-nucleophiles in the absence of transition-metals. Issues pertaining to reagents and mechanisms are discussed.engHow to make C-N bonds using boronic acids and their derivatives without transition metalsCómo hacer enlaces C-N usando ácidos borónicos y sus derivados sin usar metales de transiciónjournal articlehttps://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2020/cs/c9cs00735krestricted accessCiencias23 Química
