Selectivity between 1,2 and 1,4 addition of a nucleophile to an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound has classically been modified by the addition of stoichiometric additives to the substrate or reagent to increase their “hard” or “soft” character. Here, we demonstrate a conceptually distinct approach that instead relies on controlling the coordination sphere of a catalyst with visible light. In this way, we bias the reaction down two divergent pathways, giving contrasting products in the catalytic hydroboration of α,β-unsaturated ketones. This includes direct access to previously elusive cyclic enolborates, via 1,4-selective hydroboration, providing a straightforward and stereoselective route to rare syn-aldol products in one-pot. DFT calculations and mechanistic experiments confirm two different mechanisms are operative, underpinning this unusual photocontrolled selectivity switch.

A concise synthesis of two imidazolium ion-tagged prolinamide organocatalysts 3 and 4, varying in anionic component (CF3COO- and PF6 -, respectively) is presented. The latter could be classified as an ionic liqu
Chiral Br?nsted Acid as a True Catalyst: Asymmetric Mukaiyama Aldol and Hosomi-Sakurai Allylation Reactions

Highly diastereo- and enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol reaction catalyzed by a new chiral Br?nsted acid, N-(perfluorooctanesulfonyl)thiophosphoramide, is described. The perfluorooctyl substituent on the sulfonyl group of the catalyst plays an essential role in the stereoselection. The catalyst also allows the asymmetric Hosomi-Sakurai allylation, which has been considerably challenging due to the low reactivity of allylsilanes. 29Si and 31P NMR monitoring reveals the characteristic feature of the thiophosphoramide catalyst, acting as a strong Br?nsted acid even in the presence of excess silyl nucleophiles, which cannot be found in other related phosphoric acid analogues.
