A cobalt-catalyzed asymmetric reduction of β,β-dialkyl α,β-unsaturated esters with polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) was reported to deliver the corresponding esters containing a chiral trialkyl carbon center at β-position with up to 97 % yield and 98 % ee. The chiral tridentate ligand oxazoline iminopyridine (OIP) could perform well for the asymmetric reduction instead of chiral bidentate ligands. This operationally simple protocol shows a broad scope of substrates using one equivalent of readily available PMHS as a cheap and easy-to-handle reductive reagent.

A rhodium-catalyzed 1,4-addition of sodium tetraarylborates to β,β-disubstituted α,β-unsaturated esters has been developed. Highly efficient asymmetric catalysis has also been described to create quaternary carbon stereocenters at the β-position of esters by tuning the ester group of substrates and employing a readily available chiral diene ligand.
