Abstract

Abstract : The ability of alkali metal complexes bearing chiral BINOL-derived ligands to catalyse the enantioselective hydroboration of ketones was explored. Abstract : The ability of alkali metal complexes featuring functionalized BINOL-derived ligands to catalyze ketone hydroboration reactions was explored. The reduced products were formed in excellent yields and with variable enantioselectivities dependent upon the nature of the ligand and the alkali metal cation.
