Arylboronic Acid-Catalyzed Racemization of Secondary and Tertiary Alcohols

[Image: see text] The use of 2-carboxyphenylboronic acid (5 mol %) and oxalic acid (10 mol %) with 2-butanone as a solvent for the racemization of a range of enantiomerically pure secondary and tertiary alcohols is demonstrated. The process is postulated to proceed via reversible Brønsted acid-catal...
