Abstract

The Cu-catalyzed asymmetric carboboration of cyclohexadienone-tethered allenes has been achieved through regioselective β-borylation of the allenes and subsequent conjugate addition to cyclohexadienones, affording cis-bicyclic frameworks with acceptable yields and high to excellent enantioselectivities. Further conjugate borylation of the carboboration products proved to be a favorable kinetic resolution process, which improved the overall enantioselectivity. Finally, one-pot preparation of highly enantioenriched tricyclo[5.2.2.04,9]undecanes was developed from the cyclohexadienone-tethered allenes through β-borylation/1,4-addition and subsequent tandem oxidation/intramolecular aldol reaction.
