Cover Feature: Metal‐Free Synthesis of <i>α</i> ‐Boryl Ketones via Acid‐Mediated Hydration of Alkynyl MIDA Boronates (Adv. Synth. Catal. 3/2026)
Alkynyl MIDA Boronates This cover design was inspired by the classic Chinese fable “The Foolish Old Man Moves Mountains.” TFA serves as the miner's hammer, with water as the promoter, precisely hydrating alkynyl MIDA boronates (the mountain) to afford α-boryl ketones (hewn stones). More information can be found in the Research Article by Jinggong Liu, Hua Zhou, Wenbo Ming and co-workers (10.1002/adsc.70277).
