“…Concerning the reaction pathway, based on the experimental results and related literatures, [1–4, 12–14, 18] a possible reaction pathway is proposed (Figure 2). Initially, LCu‐Bpin I , generated from CuCl, B 2 pin 2 and NaO t Bu, inserts into the C=N bond of imine to give α‐boryl amido‐copper complex II .…”
