Major-ish edit proposal

The boronate/boronic ester section is seriously lacking, and to be honest I'm surprised it doesn't have its own page, considering its popularity in synthesis and sensing. I intend to either build it up over the coming few weeks or possible even revive the the boronate ester article and remove the redirect. Contributions welcome, of course.

Great idea. Try to emphasize reviews and books, otherwise these articles often end up focused on specialty results. Another thing: graphics. It is possible that some graphics should be replaced. Some older editors tended to highlight exotica vs mainstream content. We recommend --Smokefoot (talk) 11:01, 20 January 2020 (UTC)wordless graphics, just chemistry then put the words in the caption.--Smokefoot (talk) 10:46, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

Totally in agreement. A lot of the transformations and uses of boronate/boronic esters are covered in fair depth in their own articles, so an overview of general content, with links to the specialised pages, would be more appropriate here I feel. Have noticed a lot of outdated ChemDraws throughout Organic Chemistry wiki articles, may well go through and fix as many as I can one day when I'm bored. RRBinwood (talk) 12:06, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
