Enantioenriched Alkylboron Synthesis Via a Chiral Diborylalkane Platform

Developing new reagents is one efficient strategy for expanding accessible chemical space. Recently, gem-diborylalkanes have emerged as a versatile class of boron-containing reagents with broad reactivity. However, most gem-diborylalkanes are achiral due to the pair of identical boryl groups, which restricts their util...
