Abstract

We report a highly diastereo-and enantioselective synthesis of anti homoallylic alcohols from terminal alkynes via (E)-1-alkenylboronates based upon two catalytic reactions: a cationic iridium complex-catalyzed olefin transposition of (E)-1-alkenylboronates and a chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed allylation reaction of aldehydes.
