Abstract

Abstract Image

A method for the synthesis of α-chiral allylboronates featuring the Cu(I)-catalyzed enantioselective substitution of readily available allylic carbonates with a diboron is described. Using this method, various α-chiral allylboronates, including functionalized allylboronates, were successfully synthesized, with high enantiomeric purity.
