The simplicity, efficiency and generality of the transition-metal-catalysed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction has led to its application in the preparation of a wide variety of organic compounds. Cross-coupling of alkylboron derivatives, however, remains a major challenge, in particular with regard to stereochemical control. Here, we describe the preparation and reaction of highly optically enriched 1,1-diboron compounds. A catalytic asymmetric conjugate borylation of beta-boronylacrylates provided geminal diboronate products that feature two distinct boronyl units, in 99% enantiomeric excess. Chemoselective cross-coupling of one-boronyl unit, a trifluoroborate salt, occurred stereospecifically via inversion of its configuration to generate enantioenriched benzylic or allylic boronates. The difficult transmetallation in the Suzuki-Miyaura catalytic reaction cycle is believed to be facilitated by a stabilization effect from the second boronyl unit, and internal coordination by the oxygen of the proximal carboxyester. We also explored subsequent functionalization of the second boronyl unit.
