Abstract
Alkenes constitute an enabling motif in organic synthesis, as they can be functionalized to form highly substituted molecules. Z-alkenes are generally challenging to access due to the thermodynamic preference for the formation of E-alkenes compared to Z-alkenes. Dehydrogenation methodologies to selectively form Z-alkenes have not yet been reported. Herein, we report a Z-selective, propargylic dehydrogenation that provides 1,3-enynes through the invention of a Co-catalyzed oxidation system. Observation of a kinetic isotope effect (KIE) revealed that deprotonation of the propargylic position is the rate limiting step. Additionally, isomerization experiments were conducted and confirmed that the observed Z-selectivity is a kinetic effect. A proposed stereomechanistic model for the Z-selectivity is included.

Abstract
A detailed mechanistic study of the Z-selective allylic functionalization via thianthrenium salts is presented. Kinetic analyses, deuterium labeling experiments, and computational methods are used to rationalize the observed reactivity and selectivity. We find that the reaction proceeds via a rate-determining and stereodetermining allylic deprotonation of an alkenylthianthrenium species. The Z-configuration of the resultant allylic ylide is translated into the Z-allylic amine product through a sequence of subsequent fast and irreversible steps: protonation to form a Z-allylic thianthrenium electrophile and then regioselective substitution by the nucleophile. In the stereodetermining deprotonation step, computational studies identified a series of stabilizing nonbonding interactions in the Z-alkene-forming transition state that contribute to the stereoselectivity.

Abstract
(Z)-alkenes are useful synthons but thermodynamically less stable than their (E)-isomers and typically more difficult to prepare. The synthesis of 1,4-hetero-bifunctionalized (Z)-alkenes is particularly challenging due to the inherent regio- and stereoselectivity issues. Herein we demonstrate a general, chemoselective and direct synthesis of (Z)-2-butene-1,4-diol monoesters. The protocol operates within a Pd-catalyzed decarboxylative acyloxylation regime involving vinyl ethylene carbonates (VECs) and various carboxylic acids as the reaction partners under mild and operationally attractive conditions. The newly developed process allows access to a structurally diverse pool of (Z)-2-butene-1,4-diol monoesters in good yields and with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity. Various synthetic transformations of the obtained (Z)-2-butene-1,4-diol monoesters demonstrate how these synthons are of great use to rapidly diversify the portfolio of these formal desymmetrized (Z)-alkenes.

Abstract
Alkenes are an important class of organic molecules found among synthetic intermediates and bioactive compounds. They are commonly synthesized through stoichiometric Wittig-type olefination of carbonyls and imines, using ylides or their equivalents. Despite the importance of Wittig-type olefination reactions, their catalytic variants remain underdeveloped. We explored the use of transition metal catalysis to form ylide equivalents from readily available starting materials. Our investigation led to a new copper-catalyzed olefination of imines with alkenyl boronate esters as coupling partners. We identified a heterobimetallic complex, obtained by hydrocupration of the alkenyl boronate esters, as the key catalytic intermediate that serves as an ylide equivalent. The high E-selectivity observed in the reaction is due to the stereoselective addition of this intermediate to an imine, followed by stereospecific anti-elimination.

Abstract
Stereoselective control of the cross metathesis of olefins is a crucial aspect of synthetic procedures. In this study, we utilized density functional theory methods to calculate thermodynamic and kinetic descriptors to explore the stereoselectivity of cross metathesis between allylbenzene and 2-butene-1,4-diyl diacetate. A ruthenium-based complex, characterized primarily by an anthracene-9-thiolate ligand, was designed in silico to completely restrict the E conformation of olefins through a bottom-bound mechanism. Our investigation of the kinetics of all feasible propagation routes demonstrated that Z-stereoisomers of metathesis products can be synthesized with an energy cost of only 13 kcal/mol. As a result, we encourage further research into the synthetic strategies outlined in this work.

Abstract
Asymmetric olefin metathesis is a powerful strategy for stereocontrolled synthesis that allows the formation of chiral elements in conjunction with carbon-carbon double bonds. Here, we report a new series of cyclometalated stereogenic-at-Ru catalysts that enable highly efficient asymmetric ring opening/cross-metathesis (AROCM) and asymmetric ring-closing metathesis (ARCM) reactions. Single enantiomers of these catalysts with either right-handed or left-handed configurations at the Ru center can be easily accessed via highly stereoselective C-H bond activation-based cyclometalation. Right-handed chiral Ru catalysts enabled the Z- and enantioselective AROCM of a wide range of norbornenes and terminal alkenes, generating densely functionalized cyclopentanes with excellent stereo- and enantioselectivities (99:1 Z/E, up to 99% ee). Left-handed chiral Ru catalysts enabled the facile ARCM of sterically unhindered, all-terminal prochiral trienes, which had not been achieved by previous Ru catalysts, providing simple cyclic ethers and amides with tertiary or quaternary carbon stereocenters with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee).

Abstract
A set of ruthenium complexes bearing a CAAC or uNHC ligand and a dithiocatechol fragment have been obtained and characterized spectroscopically. The activity and Z-selectivity of the newly obtained catalysts were studied in selected model CM, self-CM, and RCM olefin metathesis reactions. Intriguingly, and in contrast to structurally related NHC-bearing catalysts Ru4a and Ru4b, the CAAC and uNHC analogues showed no or only very little activity in olefin metathesis. Interestingly, despite being not productive in metathesis reactions conducted in solution, Ru8 enabled the synthesis of a model 16-membered macrocyclic lactone of valuable musk smell with excellent chemoselectivity (no C-C double-bond migration was observed) at a concentration 40 times higher than that typically used by organic chemists in similar macrocyclizations (200 mM instead of 5 mM) with excellent Z-selectivity. Unfortunately, also here the conversion was low.

Abstract
Alkenes are ubiquitous in organic chemistry, yet many classes of alkenes remain challenging to access by current synthetic methodology. Herein, we report a copper hydride-catalyzed approach for the synthesis of Z-configured trisubstituted alkenes with high stereo- and regioselectivity via alkyne hydroalkylation. A DTBM-dppf-supported Cu catalyst was found to be optimal, providing a substantial increase in product yield compared to reactions conducted with dppf as the ligand. DFT calculations show that the DTBM substitution leads to the acceleration of alkyne hydrocupration through combined ground and transition state effects related to preventing catalyst dimerization and enhancing catalyst-substrate dispersion interactions, respectively. Alkyne hydroalkylation was successfully demonstrated with methyl and larger alkyl tosylate electrophiles to produce a variety of (hetero)aryl-substituted alkenes in moderate to high yields with complete selectivity for the Z stereochemically configured products. In the formation of the key C-C bond, computational studies revealed a direct SN2 pathway for alkylation of the vinylcopper intermediate with in situ-formed alkyl iodides.

Abstract
The cis/trans stereochemistry of repeating alkenes in polymers provides a powerful handle to modulate the thermal and mechanical properties of these soft materials, but synthetic methods to precisely dictate this parameter remain scarce. We report herein a cis-selective acyclic diene metathesis (ADMET) polymerization of readily available α,ω-diene monomers with high functional group tolerance. Identification of a highly stereoselective cyclometalated Ru catalyst allowed the synthesis of a broad array of polymers with cis contents up to 99%. This platform was leveraged to study the impact of the cis geometry on the thermal and mechanical properties of polyalkenamers, including an ABA triblock copolymer synthesized via extension of a cis-rich telechelic polyoctenamer with d,l-lactide. These results suggest that cis-selective ADMET affords an efficient strategy to tune the properties of a variety of polymers.

Abstract
The synthesis and processing of most thermoplastics and thermoset polymeric materials rely on energy-inefficient and environmentally burdensome manufacturing methods. Frontal polymerization is an attractive, scalable alternative due to its exploitation of polymerization heat that is generally wasted and unutilized. The only external energy needed for frontal polymerization is an initial thermal (or photo) stimulus that locally ignites the reaction. The subsequent reaction exothermicity provides local heating; the transport of this thermal energy to neighboring monomers in either a liquid or gel-like state results in a self-perpetuating reaction zone that provides fully cured thermosets and thermoplastics. Propagation of this polymerization front continues through the unreacted monomer media until either all reactants are consumed or sufficient heat loss stalls further reaction. Several different polymerization mechanisms support frontal processes, including free-radical, cat- or anionic, amine-cure epoxides, and ring-opening metathesis polymerization. The choice of monomer, initiator/catalyst, and additives dictates how fast the polymer front traverses the reactant medium, as well as the maximum temperature achievable. Numerous applications of frontally generated materials exist, ranging from porous substrate reinforcement to fabrication of patterned composites. In this review, we examine in detail the physical and chemical phenomena that govern frontal polymerization, as well as outline the existing applications.

Abstract
Olefins are ubiquitous in biologically active molecules and frequently used as building blocks in chemical transformations. However, although many strategies exist for the synthesis of stereodefined E-olefines, their thermodynamically less stable Z counterparts are substantially more demanding, while access to those bearing an allylic stereocenter with an adjacent reactive functionality remains unsolved altogether. Even the classic Wittig reaction, arguably the most versatile and widely used approach to construct Z-alkenes, falls short for the synthesis of these particularly challenging yet highly useful structural motives. Here, we report a general methodology for Z-selective synthesis of functionalized chiral alkenes that establishes readily available alkene-derived phosphines as an alternative to alkylating reagents in Wittig olefination, thus offering previously unidentified retrosynthetic disconnections for the formation of functionalized disubstituted alkenes. We demonstrate the potential of this method by structural diversification of several bioactive molecules.

Abstract
Alkene metathesis catalyzed by enantiopure metal alkylidene complexes enables exceptionally versatile strategies to products with configurationally-defined stereocenters. Desymmetrization processes thereby provide reliable stereoselective routes to aliphatic structures, while the differentiation of aromatic stereogenic units remained an outstanding challenge. Herein, we describe the feasibility of alkene metathesis to catalytically control stereogenic axes by traceless arene formation. Stereodynamic trienes are selectively converted into corresponding binaphthalene atropisomers upon exposure to a chiral molybdenum catalyst. Remarkably, stereoselective arene-forming metathesis allows enantioselectivities of up to 98 : 2 e.r. and excellent yields. As the disconnection of each bond of an aromatic target is retrosynthetically conceivable, it is anticipated that forging arenes by means of stereoselective metathesis will enable versatile approaches for the synthesis of a broad range of molecular topologies with precisely defined configuration.

Abstract
Cycloruthenated complexes have been studied extensively over the last few decades. Many accounts of their synthesis, characterisation, and catalytic activity in a wide variety of transformations have been reported to date. Compared with their non-cyclometallated analogues, cycloruthenated complexes may display enhanced catalytic activities in known transformations or possess entirely new reactivity. In other instances, these complexes can be chiral, and capable of catalysing stereoselective reactions. In this review, we aim to highlight the catalytic applications of cycloruthenated complexes in organic synthesis, emphasising the recent advancements in this field. We discuss recent advances in the applications of cycloruthenated complexes in organic synthesis, comprising C–H activation, chiral-at-metal catalysis, Z-selective olefin metathesis, transfer hydrogenation, enantioselective cyclopropanations and cycloadditions.![]()

Abstract
![]()
Although highly selective
complexes for the cross-metathesis of
olefins, particularly oriented toward the productive metathesis of Z-olefins, have been reported in recent years, there is
a constant need to design and prepare new and improved catalysts for
this challenging reaction. In this work, guided by density functional
theory (DFT) calculations, the performance of a Ru-based catalyst
chelated to a sulfurated pincer in the olefin metathesis was computationally
assessed. The catalyst was designed based on the Hoveyda–Grubbs
catalyst (SIMes)Cl2Ru(=CH–o–OiPrC6H4) through the substitution
of chlorides with the chelator bis(2-mercaptoimidazolyl)methane. The
obtained thermodynamic and kinetic data of the initiation phase through
side- and bottom-bound mechanisms suggest that this system is a versatile
catalyst for olefin metathesis, as DFT predicts the highest energy
barrier of the catalytic cycle of ca. 20 kcal/mol, which is comparable
to those corresponding to the Hoveyda–Grubbs-type catalysts.
Moreover, in terms of the stereoselectivity evaluated through the
propagation phase in the metathesis of propene–propene to 2-butene,
our study reveals that the Z isomer can be formed
under a kinetic control. We believe that this is an interesting outcome
in the context of future exploration of Ru-based catalysts with sulfurated
chelates in the search for high stereoselectivity in selected reactions.

Abstract
A concise and stereoselective total synthesis of the clinically relevant tricyclic prostaglandin D2 metabolite (tricyclic-PGDM) methyl ester in racemic form was accomplished in eight steps from a readily available known cyclopentene-diol derivative. The synthesis features a nickel-catalyzed Ueno-Stork-type dicarbofunctionalization to generate two consecutive stereocenters, a palladium-catalyzed carbonylative spirolactonization to build the core oxaspirolactone, and a Z-selective cross-metathesis to introduce the (Z)-3-butenoate side chain, a group challenging to introduce through traditional Wittig protocols and troublesome for the two previous total syntheses. A general Z-selective cross-metathesis protocol to construct (Z)-β,γ-unsaturated esters was also developed that has broad functional group tolerance and high stereoselectivity. Additionally, our synthesis already accumulated 75 mg of valuable material for an 18 O-tricyclic-PGDM-based assay used in clinical settings for inflammation.

Abstract
Olefin cross-metathesis is a cornerstone reaction in organic synthesis where stereoselectivity is typically governed by the structure of the catalyst. In this work, we show that merging Grubbs second generation catalyst, a classical E-selective catalyst, with a readily available photocatalyst, enables the exclusive formation of the contra-thermodynamic Z-isomer. The scope and limitations of this unprecedented approach are discussed based on both computational and experimental mechanistic data. Light is magic! The combination of Grubbs second generation catalyst, a well-known catalyst for E-selective olefin metathesis, with a photosensitizer enables efficient access to the contra-thermodynamic Z-isomers.![]()

Abstract
Adamantane derivatives have diverse applications in the fields of medicinal chemistry, catalyst development and nanomaterials, owing to their unique structural, biological and stimulus-responsive properties, among others. The synthesis of substituted adamantanes and substituted higher diamondoids is frequently achieved via carbocation or radical intermediates that have unique stability and reactivity when compared to simple hydrocarbon derivatives. In this review, we discuss the wide range of radical-based functionalization reactions that directly convert diamondoid C-H bonds to C-C bonds, providing a variety of products incorporating diverse functional groups (alkenes, alkynes, arenes, carbonyl groups, etc.). Recent advances in the area of selective C-H functionalization are highlighted with an emphasis on the H-atom abstracting species and their ability to activate the particularly strong C-H bonds that are characteristic of these caged hydrocarbons, providing insights that can be applied to the C-H functionalization of other substrate classes.

Effect of Lewis Acids on the Catalyst Activity for Alkene Metathesis, Z-/E- Selectivity and Stability of Tungsten Oxo Alkylidenes. Top Catal 2021.

Abstract
AbstractLewis acids increase the catalytic activity of classical heterogeneous catalysts and molecular d0 tungsten oxo alkylidenes in a variety of olefin metathesis processes. The formation of labile adducts between the metal complex and the Lewis acid has been observed experimentally and suggested to be involved in the catalyst activity increase. In this contribution, DFT (M06) calculations have been performed to determine the role of Lewis acids on catalyst activity, Z-/E- selectivity and stability by comparing three W(E)(CHR)(2,5-dimethylpyrrolide)(O-2,6-dimesithylphenoxide) (E = oxo, imido or oxo-Lewis acid adduct) alkylidenes. Results show that the formation of the alkylidene—Lewis acid adducts influences the reactivity of tungsten oxo alkylidenes due to both steric and electronic effects. The addition of the Lewis acid on the E group increases its bulkiness and this decreases catalyst Z-selectivity. Moreover, the interaction between the oxo ligand and the Lewis acid decreases the donating ability of the former toward the metal. This is important when the oxo group has either a ligand in trans or in the same plane that is competing for the same metal d orbitals. Therefore, the weakening of oxo donating ability facilitates the cycloaddition and cycloreversion steps and it stabilizes the productive trigonal bipyramid metallacyclobutane isomer. The two factors increase the catalytic activity of the complex. The electron donating tuneability by the coordination of the Lewis acid also applies to catalyst deactivation and particularly the key β-hydride elimination step. In this process, the transition states show a ligand in pseudo trans to the oxo. Therefore, the presence of the Lewis acid decreases the Gibbs energy barrier significantly. Overall, the optimization of the E group donating ability in each step of the reaction makes tungsten oxo alkylidenes more reactive and this applies both for the catalytic activity and catalyst deactivation.

Abstract
α-Oxygenated Z-olefins are ubiquitous in biologically active molecules and serve as versatile handles for organic synthesis, but their syntheses are often tedious and less selective. Here we report the efficient Z-selective metathesis of various terminal acrylates and allyl alcohols, which enables facile and selective construction of high value-added α-oxygenated Z-olefins from readily available feedstock chemicals. These challenging metathesis transformations are enabled by novel cyclometalated Ru-carbene-nitrate complexes bearing bulky-yet-flexible side arms, whose assembly was unlocked by new organometallic syntheses.

Abstract
Predictive catalysis must be the tool that does not replace experiments, but acts as a selective agent, so that synthetic strategies of maximum profitability are used in the laboratory in a surgical way. Here, nanotechnology has been used in olefin metathesis from homogeneous Ru-NHC catalysts, specifically annulating a C60 fullerene to the NHC ligand. Based on results with the C60 in the backbone, a sterile change with respect to the catalysis of the metal center, an attempt has been made to bring C60 closer to the metal, by attaching it to one of the two C-N bonds of the imidazole group of the SIMes (1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene) ligand (reference NHC ligand of the 2nd generation Grubbs catalysts) to increase the steric pressure of C60 in the first sphere of reactivity of the metal. The DFT calculated thermodynamics and the kinetics of SIMes-derived systems show that they are efficient catalysts for olefin metathesis.

Abstract
![]()
Many
polycyclic marine
alkaloids are thought to derive from partly
reduced macrocyclic alkylpyridine derivatives via a transannular Diels–Alder
reaction that forms their common etheno-bridged diaza-decaline core
(“Baldwin–Whitehead hypothesis”). Rather than
trying to emulate this biosynthesis pathway, a route to these natural
products following purely chemical logic was pursued. Specifically,
a Michael/Michael addition cascade provided rapid access to this conspicuous
tricyclic scaffold and allowed different handles to be introduced
at the bridgehead quarternary center. This flexibility opened opportunities
for the formation of the enveloping medium-sized and macrocyclic rings.
Ring closing alkyne metathesis (RCAM) proved most reliable and became
a recurrent theme en route to keramaphidin B, ingenamine, xestocyclamine
A, and nominal njaoamine I (the structure of which had to be corrected
in the aftermath of the synthesis). Best results were obtained with
molybdenum alkylidyne catalysts endowed with (tripodal) silanolate
ligands, which proved fully operative in the presence of tertiary
amines, quinoline, and other Lewis basic sites. RCAM was successfully
interlinked with macrolactamization, an intricate hydroboration/protonation/alkyl-Suzuki
coupling sequence, or ring closing olefin metathesis (RCM) for the
closure of the second lateral ring; the use of RCM for the formation
of an 11-membered cycle is particularly noteworthy. Equally rare are
RCM reactions that leave a pre-existing triple bond untouched, as
the standard ruthenium catalysts are usually indiscriminative vis-à-vis
the different π-bonds. Of arguably highest significance, however,
is the use of two consecutive or even concurrent RCAM reactions en
route to nominal njaoamine I as the arguably most complex of the chosen
targets.

Abstract
The first continuous flow Z-selective olefin metathesis process is reported. Key to realizing this process was the adequate choice of stereoselective catalysts combined with the design of an appropriate continuous reactor setup. The designed continuous process permits various self-, cross- and macro-ring-closing-metathesis reactions, delivering products in high selectivity and short residence times. This technique is exemplified by direct application to the preparation of a range of pheromones and macrocyclic odorant molecules and culminates in a telescoped Z-selective cross-metathesis/ Dieckmann cyclisation sequence to access (Z)-Civetone, incorporating a serial array of continually stirred tank reactors.

Abstract
This review describes a distinct class of ruthenium olefin metathesis catalysts featuring unsymmetrical N-heterocyclic carbene (uNHC) ligands, from its historical beginning to the present state of the art. Thanks to advantageous traits, such as pronounced thermodynamic stability, chemical latency, outstanding selectivity, and compatibility with green solvents, these catalysts led to good results in a number of specialized metathesis transformations. Therefore, while being a niche, the uNHC complexes can potentially be implemented in a number of industrial processes, such as valorization of Fischer-Tropsch olefin fractions, ethenolysis of renewable products, and modern pharmaceutical production.

Abstract
A substrate-controlled stereoselective semi-reduction of alkynes with MeOH as the hydrogen source has been developed, and readily available Cu(OAc)2 (copper acetate) is utilized as an optimal catalyst. The detailed investigation of the mechanism revealed distinct catalytic processes for the (Z)- and (E)-alkenes, respectively. As a result, a diversity of alkynes (including terminal, internal alkynes etc.) were compatible under the mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, the high proportion of deuterium in Z-alkenes (up to 96%) was obtained using d 4-methanol as a solvent.

Abstract
The total synthesis of haliclonin A was accomplished. Starting from 3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid, a functionalized cyclohexanone fused to a 17-membered ring was prepared through a Birch reduction/alkylation sequence, ring-closing metathesis, intramolecular cyclopropanation, and stereoselective 1,4-addition of an organocopper reagent to an enone moiety. Reductive C-N bond formation via an N,O-acetal forged the 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane core. The allyl alcohol moiety was constructed by a sequence involving stereoselective α-selenylation of an aldehyde via an enamine, syn-elimination of a selenoxide, and allylation of the aldehyde with an allylboronate. Formation of the 15-membered ring containing a skipped diene was achieved by ring-closing metathesis, and final transformations led to the synthesis of haliclonin A.

Abstract
Hoveyda–Grubbs-type complexes, ruthenium catalysts for olefin metathesis, have gained increased interest as a research target in the interdisciplinary research fields of chemistry and biology because of their high functional group selectivity in olefin metathesis reactions and stabilities in aqueous media. This review article introduces the application of designed Hoveyda–Grubbs-type complexes for bio-relevant studies including the construction of hybrid olefin metathesis biocatalysts and the development of in-vivo olefin metathesis reactions. As a noticeable issue in the employment of Hoveyda–Grubbs-type complexes in aqueous media, the influence of water on the catalytic activities of the complexes and strategies to overcome the problems resulting from the water effects are also discussed. In connection to the structural effects of protein structures on the reactivities of Hoveyda–Grubbs-type complexes included in the protein, the regulation of metathesis activities through second-coordination sphere effect is presented, demonstrating that the reactivities of Hoveyda–Grubbs-type complexes are controllable by the structural modification of the complexes at outer-sphere parts. Finally, as a new-type reaction based on the ruthenium-olefin specific interaction, a recent finding on the ruthenium complex transfer reaction between Hoveyda–Grubbs-type complexes and biomolecules is introduced.

Abstract
AbstractOlefin metathesis has tremendously impacted all fields of synthetic chemistry. However, the control of the olefin stereochemistry during this process remains a grand challenge. Recent innovations in catalyst design have permitted control of the stereochemistry of the olefin product. Here, we discuss the development of stereoretentive olefin metathesis, with an emphasis on the synthesis of stereodefined polyalkenamers through ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). We then present our application of this unique reaction manifold to the preparation of all-cis poly(p-phenylene vinylene)s (PPVs). A dithiolate Ru catalyst was found to deliver perfect cis selectivity for the polymerization of a paracyclophane diene monomer. By using optimized conditions, all-cis PPVs with narrow dispersities and predictable molar masses were obtained by varying the ratio of monomer to catalyst. The high chain fidelity of the stereoretentive ROMP with a paracyclophane diene monomer enabled the preparation of well-defined diblock copolymers with a norbornene co-monomer. Photochemical isomerization of all-cis to all-trans PPVs was effected with both homopolymers and diblock copolymers. This process was shown to be selective for the PPV block, and resulted in changes in optical properties, polymer size, and solubility. Stereoretentive ROMP provides a promising platform for synthesizing polymers with unique properties, including photoresponsive all-cis PPVs with living characteristics.1 Introduction2 Synthetic Applications of Stereoretentive Olefin Metathesis3 Stereocontrol of Polyalkenamers through Stereoretentive ROMP4 Stereoretentive ROMP To Access All-cis Poly(p-phenylene vinylene)s5 Conclusion

Abstract
The enantioselective anti- and syn-(borylmethyl)allylation of aldehydes via phosphoric acid catalysis is reported. Both (E)- and (Z)-γ-borylmethyl allylboronate reagents were prepared via the Cu-catalyzed highly stereoselective protoboration of 1,3-dienylboronate. Chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed aldehyde allylation with either the (E)- or (Z)-allylboron reagent provided 1,2-anti- or 1,2-syn-adducts in good yields with high enantioselectivities. The application to the synthesis of morinol D was accomplished.
