This study presents an amide-directed, rhodium-catalyzed highly diastereo- and enantioselective hydroboration reaction which provides a facile access to enantioenriched amines containing beta,gamma-vicinal stereocenters. Computational studies indicate that migratory insertion of the alkene into rhodium hydride controls the enantioselectivity.
Despite the frequent occurrence of gamma-branched amines in bioactive molecules, the direct catalytic asymmetric synthesis of this structural motif containing a remote stereocenter remains an important synthetic challenge. Here, we report an amide-directed, rhodium-catalyzed highly diastereo-and enantioselective hydroboration of unactivated internal alkenes. This method provided facile access to enantioenriched amines containing beta,gamma-vicinal stereocenters. The application of this strategy to the synthesis of bioactive molecules was demonstrated. Computational studies indicated that migratory insertion of the alkene into rhodium hydride controls the enantioselectivity.
