Abstract

A breakthrough in the asymmetric hydroboration of notoriously difficult 1,1-disubstituted alkenes using a new family of highly effective hydroboration reagents is described (see scheme). The intermediate boranes can be oxidized to alcohols or used in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions.
