Abstract
The asymmetric allylboration of aldehydes with pinacolallylboronates catalyzed by 1,1′-spirobiindane-7,7′-diol (SPINOL) based phosphoric acids is described. 6,6′-Bis(2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl)SPINOL-based phosphoric acid was found to be a general, highly enantioselective catalyst for such allylboration reactions and excellent enantioselectivities were obtained for different types of aldehydes including aromatic aldehydes, α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, propargylic aldehydes, and aliphatic aldehydes.
