The Diels-Alder reaction, which is a traditional [4 + 2] cycloaddition with two carbon-carbon bond formations, is one of the most powerful tools to synthesize versatile and unique six-membered rings. We show that chiral supramolecular U-shaped boron Lewis acid catalysts promote the unprecedented multiselective Diels-Alder reaction of propargyl aldehyde with cyclic dienes. Independent from the substrate control, enantio-, endo/exo-, π-facial-, regio-, site-, and substrate-selectivities could be controlled by the present U-shaped catalysts. The obtained reaction products could access the concise synthesis of chiral diene ligands and a key intermediate of (+)-sarkomycin. The results presented here might partially contribute to the development of artificial enzyme-like supramolecular catalysts for multiselective reactions, which will be able to target organic compounds that have thus far eluded synthesis.

New C2-symmetric bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-dienes bearing methyl and phenyl substituents at the 2 and 5 positions were prepared enantiomerically pure through a two-step sequence starting from the readily available bicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-dione. Due to the instability or volatility of these dienes, their isolation was achieved through the formation of the corresponding stable [RhCl(diene)]2 complexes. These chiral rhodium complexes displayed high activity and enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee) in the rhodium-catalyzed 1,4-addition and 1,2-addition of phenylboronic acid to cyclic enones and N-sulfonylimines, respectively.

As a new type of chiral ligand, a C2-symmetric norbornadiene derivative (1R,4R)-2,5-dibenzylbicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene (1) was prepared and used for the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric addition of organoboron and -tin reagents to α,β-unsaturate
