Abstract

A one-step, three-component condensation of allenyl boronic acids or allenyl pinacolboronates with amines and aldehydes affords α-allenyl or α-propargyl α-amino acids and anti-β-amino alcohols. Secondary amines generate exclusively α-allenyl α-amino acids, while primary aliphatic amines lead to α-propargyl α-amino acids.
