Abstract
Chiral secondary alkyl amines with a vicinal quaternary stereocenter are undoubtedly important and ubiquitous subunits in natural products and pharmaceuticals. However, their asymmetric synthesis remains a formidable challenge. Herein, we merge the ring-opening 1,2-metallate shift with iridium-catalyzed enantioselective C(sp3)-H borylation of aziridines to deliver these frameworks with high enantioselectivities. We also demonstrated the synthetic application by downstream transformations, including the total synthesis of two Amaryllidaceae alkaloids, (-)-crinane and (+)-mesmebrane.

Abstract
The catalytic, undirected borylation of alkyl C-H bonds typically occurs at high reaction temperatures or with excess substrate, or both, because of the low reactivity of alkyl C-H bonds. Here we report a new iridium system comprising 2-anilino-1,10-phenanthroline as the ligand that catalyzes the borylation of alkyl C-H bonds with little to no induction period and with high reaction rates. This superior activation and reactivity profile of 2-aminophenanthroline-ligated catalysts leads to broader reaction scope, including reactions of sensitive substrates, such as epoxides and glycosidic acetals, enhanced diastereoselectivity, and higher yields of borylated products. These catalysts also enable the borylation of alkanes, amines, and ethers at room temperature for the first time. Mechanistic studies imply that facile N-borylation occurs under the reaction conditions and that iridium complexes containing N-boryl aminophenanthrolines are competent precatalysts for the reaction.

Abstract
The installation of selenium groups has become an essential step across a number of industries such as agrochemicals, drug discovery, and materials. However, direct C(sp3)-H selenation, which is most atom economical, remains a formidable challenge, and only a few examples have been reported to date. In this article, we introduce the transition metal-free C(sp3)-H selenation with the easily available β-ketosulfones and diselenides as the material source. This benign protocol permits access to a broad spectrum of α-aryl(alkyl) seleno-β-ketosulfones in high yields with outstanding functional group compatibility. Distinct advantages of this protocol over all previous methods encompass the utilization of base and air as an oxidant, room temperature, and enhanced green chemistry matrices.

Abstract
Four-membered carbocycles are fundamental substructures in bioactive molecules and approved drugs and serve as irreplaceable building blocks in organic synthesis. However, developing efficient protocols furnishing diversified four-membered ring compounds in a highly regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective fashion remains challenging but very desirable. Here, we report the unprecedented asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of cyclobutenediones. The reaction can selectively afford three types of four-membered products in high yields with high stereoselectivities, and the highly functionalized products enable a series of further transformations to form more diversified four-membered compounds. Asymmetric synthesis of di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted bioactive molecules has also been achieved. Systematic mechanistic studies and theoretical calculations have revealed the origin of the regioselectivity, the key hydrogenation transition state models, and the sequence of the double and triple hydrogenation processes. The work provides a new choice for the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of cyclobutanes and related structures and demonstrates the robustness of asymmetric transfer hydrogenation in the accurate selectivity control of highly functionalized substrates.

Abstract
Creating a perfect catalyst to operate enzyme-like chiral recognition has been a long-sought aim. A challenging example in this context is constructing acyclic all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers by transition metal-catalyzed enantioselective C-H activation. We now report highly enantioselective iridium-catalyzed primary C-H borylation of α-all-carbon substituted 2,2-dimethyl amides enabled by a tailor-made chiral bidentate boryl ligand (CBL). The success of the current transformation is attributed to the CBL/iridium catalyst, which has a confined chiral pocket. This protocol provides a diverse array of acyclic all-carbon quaternary stereocenters with excellent enantiocontrol and distinct structural features. Computational study reveals that steric hindrance of CBL could regulate the type of dominant orbital interaction between the catalyst and substrate, which is crucial to conferring high chiral induction.

Abstract
We herein report the iridium-catalyzed enantioselective C-H borylation of aryl chlorides. A variety of prochiral biaryl compounds could be well-tolerated, affording a vast array of axially chiral biaryls with high enantioselectivities. The current method exhibits a high turnover number (TON) of 7000, which represents the highest in functional-group-directed asymmetric C-H activation. The high TON was attributed to a weak catalyst-substrate interaction that was caused by mismatched chirality between catalyst and substrate. We also demonstrated the synthetic application of the current method by C-B, ortho-C-H, and C-Cl bond functionalization, including programmed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling for the synthesis of axially chiral polyarenes.

Abstract
Catalytic enantioselective functionalization of cyclobutenes constitutes a general and modular strategy for construction of enantioenriched complex cyclobutanes bearing multiple stereogenic centers, as chiral four-membered rings are common motifs in biologically active molecules and versatile intermediates in organic synthesis. However, enantioselective synthesis of cyclobutanes through such a strategy remained significantly limited. Herein, we report a series of unprecedented cobalt-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond forming reactions of cyclobutenes that are initiated through enantioselective carbometalation. The protocols feature diastereo- and enantioselective introduction of allyl, alkynyl, and functionalized alkyl groups. Mechanistic studies indicated an unusual 1,3-cobalt migration and subsequent β-carbon elimination cascade process occurred in the allyl addition. These new discoveries established a new elementary process for cobalt catalysis and an extension of diversity of nucleophiles for enantioselective transformations of cyclobutenes.

We also demonstrated the synthetic utility on a preparative-scale C-H borylation for diverse downstream transformations, including the synthesis of chiral version of bioactive molecules.

Abstract
There is an increasing interest in cyclobutanes within the medicinal chemistry community. Therefore, methods to prepare cyclobutanes that contain synthetic handles for further elaboration are of interest. Herein, we report a new approach for the synthesis of 3-borylated cyclobutanols via a formal [3 + 1]-cycloaddition using readily accessible 1,1-diborylalkanes and epihalohydrins or epoxy alcohol derivatives. 1-Substituted epibromohydrin starting materials provide access to borylated cyclobutanols containing substituents at three of the four positions on the cyclobutane core, and enantioenriched epibromohydrins lead to enantioenriched cyclobutanols with high levels of enantiospecificity (>98%). Finally, derivatization studies demonstrate the synthetic utility of both the OH and Bpin handles.

Abstract
Chiral bis(phosphine) monooxides (BPMOs) derived from C2 -symmetric bis(phosphines) have been found to induce superior levels of enantioselection in copper-catalyzed conjugate borylation of α,β-disubstituted cyclobutenones. More precisely, enantiomeric excesses as well as chemical yields are exceedingly high with (R,R)-Bozphos as the chiral ligand while these values are low with parent (R,R)-Me-Duphos. A similar yet less pronounced effect was seen in the corresponding 1,6-addition to para-quinone methides.

Abstract
Chiral organoboronates have emerged as a key intermediate in the development of pharmaceuticals and materials science. Therefore, several attempts have been made to design various synthetic methods to easily furnish these compounds during the past few decades. Inter alia, asymmetric catalysis has been increasing rapidly as a viable, practical and beneficial strategy for their preparation. In this respect, recent years have witnessed significant progress in aliphatic C-H borylation as the generated carbon-boron bonds are largely utilized to produce other carbon-carbon, carbon-nitrogen and carbon-oxygen bonds. This review presents a detailed overview and analysis of transition metal-catalyzed asymmetric C(sp3)-H borylation strategies. Overall, it assembles all the recent developments in this particular synthetic avenue up to March 2022.

Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed regio- and stereo-controllable C-H functionalization remains a formidable challenge in asymmetric catalysis. Herein, we disclose the first example of iridium-catalyzed C(sp3 )-H borylation of aminocyclopropanes by using simple imides as weakly coordinating directing groups under mild reaction conditions. The reaction proceeded via a six-membered iridacycle, affording a vast range of chiral aminocyclopropyl boronates. The current method features a broad spectrum of functional groups (36 examples) and high enantioselectivities (up to 99 %). We also demonstrated the synthetic utility by a preparative scale C-H borylation, C-B bond transformations, and conversion of the directing group.

Abstract
A bidentate monoanionic ligand system was developed to enable iridium catalyzed C(sp3)-H activation borylation of N-methyl amides. Borylated amides were obtained in moderate to good isolated yields, and exclusive mono-borylation allowed the amide to be the limiting reagent. Selectivity for C(sp3)-H activation was demonstrated in the presence of sterically available C(sp3)-H bonds. Competitive kinetic isotope studies revealed a large primary isotope effect, implicating C-H activation as the rate limiting step.

Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to gain insight into the reaction mechanism of the Co(I)-catalyzed asymmetric [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of enyne 1a with ethylene 2 to give the functionalized cyclobutene E-4a possessing a chiral, all-carbon quaternary center in the ring framework (Science, 361, 68-72). This study reveals that the whole catalysis can be characterized via three stages: (i) oxidative dimerization followed by reductive elimination gives the intermediate IM3, (ii) the alkenyl-Co(III) metallacycloheptene IM6 formation with the addition of another equivalent ethylene via an oxidative dimerization process, (iii) β-Hydrogen elimination and reductive elimination from IM6 to result in the final product E-4a and regenerate the active speices IM1 for the next catalytic cycle. Each stage is kinetically and thermodynamically feasible for experimental realization under mild conditions, and the formation of the alkenyl-Co(III) metallacycloheptene IM6, with a barrier of 27.2 kcal mol-1 (i.e., IM2 → TS4), should be the rate-determining step (RDS) during the whole catalysis. In addition, the origins of enantioselectivity and regioselectivity of the product are discussed.

Abstract
Enantioselective reactions that install functional groups at the positions of unactivated C-H bonds can be envisioned to produce intermediates for the synthesis of the active ingredients in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals directly from simple feedstocks. Among these C-H bond functionalization reactions, those that form carbon-silicon (C-Si) and carbon-boron (C-B) bonds have been pursued because the products of these reactions can be converted to those containing a wide range of functional groups and because compounds containing silicon and boron possess unique properties that can be valuable for medicinal and materials chemistry. Although the silylation and borylation of C-H bonds have undergone extensive development during the past two decades, enantioselective versions of these reactions were not known until a few years ago. In this Minireview, we present the rapid development of enantioselective silylation and borylation of C-H bonds, with an emphasis on the design and development of the types of chiral ligands needed to achieve these reactions and an intention to inspire an expansion of these types of transformations.

We report here a sequential enantioselective reduction/C-H functionalization to install contiguous stereogenic carbon centers of benzocyclobutenols and cyclobutanols. This strategy features a practical enantioselective reduction of a ketone and a diastereospecific iridium-catalyzed C-H silylation. Further transformations have been explored, including controllable regioselective ring-opening reactions. In addition, this strategy has been utilized for the synthesis of three natural products, phyllostoxin (proposed structure), grandisol and fragranol.

Abstract
Compared with the well-developed centrally chiral boron chemistry, C-B axially chiral chemistry remains elusive and challenging. Herein we report the first atroposelective Miyaura borylation of bromoarenes with unsymmetrical diboron reagents for the direct catalytic synthesis of optically active atropisomeric arylborons. This reaction features broad substrate scope and produces axially chiral arylborons with high yields and good enantioselectivities.

Reported herein is the pyrazole-directed iridium-catalyzed enantioselective borylation of unbiased methylene C-H bonds at the position β to a nitrogen center. The combination of a chiral bidentate boryl ligand, iridium precursor, and pyrazole directing group was responsible for the high regio- and enantioselectivity observed. The method tolerated a vast array of functional groups to afford the corresponding C(sp3 )-H functionalization products with good to excellent enantioselectivity.
