In this presentation, we will discuss an operationally facile and efficient hydroboration of unsaturated species such as amides and esters to afford the corresponding amines and alcohols using lanthanum catalysts in the presence of HBpin. Lanthanide polyoxometalates (POMs) are generated upon heating commercial sources of Ln(acac)3(La, Y, Gd, Eu, and Er)salts. The POMs contain a polynuclear tetrahedral La4(µ4-O)core, as confirmed by X-ray crystallography and elemental analysis. We applied these POMs as catalysis in the hydroboration of amides and esters. The results of our catalytic and (preliminary) mechanistic studies will be presented.
