Abstract
The reaction of allylboronic acids with acyl hydrazones proceeds with very high syn selectivity to afford homoallylic amine derivatives. The reaction can be carried out with both aromatic and aliphatic acyl hydrazones. The excellent syn stereochemistry, which is the opposite of the stereochemistry observed for allylboration of imines, can be explained by chelation control of the acyl hydrazone and the B(OH)2 moiety.
