Highly enantioselective rhodium-catalyzed addition of arylboroxines to N-unprotected ketimines is realized for the first time by employing chiral BIBOP-type ligands with a Rh loading as low as 1 mol %. A range of chiral alpha-trifluoromethyl-alpha,alpha-diaryl alpha-tertiary amines or 3-amino-3-aryloxindoles were formed with excellent ee values and yields by employing either WingPhos or PFBO-BIBOP as the ligand. The method has enabled an efficient enantioselective synthesis of cipargamin.
