A copper-catalyzed γ-selective and stereospecific substitution reaction of allylic carbonates with bis(pinacolato)diboron afforded allylboron compounds. Functionalized allylboronates that have an acetal, ester, or isolated alkene were prepared. The reaction of optically active allylic carbonates underwent complete chirality transfer.

Cu(I)-catalyzed enantioselective substitution of readily available allylic carbonates with bis(pinacolato)diboron afforded various α-chiral allylboronates, including functionalized allylboronates, with high enantiomeric purity.

A new method for the synthesis of substituted 2-acylallylmetal reagents in a highly regio- and stereoselective fashion involving a three-component assembly of allenes, acyl chlorides, and bimetallic reagents (B-B, Si-Si, and Sn-Sn) catalyzed by phosphine-free palladium complexes is described.

In the presence of a chiral phosphoramidite ligand, the palladium-catalyzed diboration of allenes can be executed with high enantioselectivity with a range of aromatic and aliphatic allenes. A mechanism is proposed based on isotopic-labeling experiments, stereodifferentiating reactions, kinetic analysis, and computational experiments.

Pd-catalyzed diboration of prochiral allenes occurs exclusively at the internal position and is accelerated in the presence of Lewis basic ligands. A chiral ligand was employed, and the enantiomeric excess of a variety of diboration products was found to be in the range of 86-92% ee.
