Hydroboration of terminal and internal aliphatic alkenes with
pinacolborane was carried out at room temperature in the presence of dppm and [Ir(cod)Cl]2 resulting in addition of the boron atom to the terminal carbon with a selectivity of more than
99%. A complex
prepared from dppe and [Ir(cod)Cl]2 resulted in the best yields for
vinylarenes.

Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroboration of 3,3-disubstituted cyclopropenes
gave 2,2-disubstituted cyclopropyl boronates with high degrees of diastereo- and
enantioselectivity. Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of selected
cyclopropylboronic derivatives produced corresponding optically active aryl- and
vinylcyclopropanes in good yields.

A dramatic rate acceleration in the copper-catalyzed addition of bis(pinacolato)diboron
to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl
compounds was realized by adding alcohol additives. Various α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds
were reacted to the corresponding β-boryl carbonyl compounds in high
yields.

A nickel catalyst system enables the β-boration of di-, tri-, and
tetrasubstituted α,β-unsaturated esters and amides with bis(pinacolato)diboron
in good yields.
