Catalytic carboboration of dienylboronate for stereoselective synthesis of (E)-γ',δ-bisboryl-anti-homoallylic alcohols

Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 Sep 17;55(75):11199-11202. doi: 10.1039/c9cc04787e.

Abstract

A Cu-catalyzed stereoselective synthesis of (E)-γ',δ-bisboryl-anti-homoallylic alcohols was developed. The products contain an alkyl and a vinyl boronate group that can be directly used in a variety of subsequent transformations.
