Abstract:
A series of benzo[a]-fused BODIPYs and the corresponding isomeric naphthyl-BODIPYs have been synthesized through a facile one-pot palladium-catalyzed domino reaction of BODIPY precursors (2-bromo-BODIPYs) with diarylethynes, via "cis, cis" and "trans, cis" addition transition states with alkynes, respectively. This reaction exhibits unprecedentedly complete cyclization regioselectivity to the a-position of the BODIPY over the b-one, and the resulting products can be effectively regulated by the substituent choice on the diarylethynes.

Regioselectivity and Stereochemistry of Hydroboration
Hydroboration proceeds in a concerted fashion with the attack of borane on the π bond, giving a cyclic four-centered transition state. The –BH2 group is bonded to the less substituted carbon and –H to the more substituted carbon. The concerted nature requires the simultaneous addition of –H and –BH2 across the same face of the alkene giving syn stereochemistry.
