1-Aryl-1,2-dialkylethenes were generated by a sequence of electrophilic substitution, 1,2-metalate rearrangement, and β-elimination initiated by the addition of enantioenriched α-(carbamoyloxy)alkylboronates to enantioenriched lithiated carbamates. The carbenoid stereochemical pairing [i.e., “like”=(S)+(S) or “unlike”=(S)+(R)] and the elimination mechanism (syn or anti), not substituent effects, determined the configuration of the trisubstituted alkene target. For example, (Z)-2,5-diphenyl-2-pentene was produced in 70 % yield with E/Z=5:95 by a like combination of Li and B carbenoids and syn (thermal) elimination whereas the E isomer was obtained in the same yield with E/Z>98:2 by an otherwise identical process involving an unlike stereochemical pairing. The concept elaborated overcomes an intrinsic limitation of traditional strategies for direct connective alkene synthesis, which cannot realize meaningful stereochemical bias unless the alkene substituents are strongly differentiated.
Development of a catalytic asymmetric variant of Hoppe's O-alkyl carbamate deprotonation methodology

The optimisation of a ligand-exchange approach to catalytic asymmetric deprotonation of O-alkyl carbamates and subsequent electrophilic trapping (the 'Hoppe reaction') is presented. The method uses s-BuLi and sub-stoichiometric amounts of a chiral diamine [(-)-sparteine or the (+)-sparteine surrogate] in conjunction with an achiral 'regenerating' diamine (bisisopropyl bispidine) for the deprotonation and proceeds with good yields (up to 84%) and high enantioselectivity (up to 94:6 er). The first applications of this catalytic asymmetric deprotonation methodology in natural product synthesis are also described. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
Stereospecific reaction of α-carbamoyloxy-2-alkenylboronates and α-carbamoyloxy-alkylboronates with grignard reagents - Synthesis of highly enantioenriched secondary alcohols

Highly enantioenriched secondary alcohols were synthesized by treatment of α-carbamoyloxy-2-alkenylboronates and α-carbamoyloxy-alkylboronates with Grignard reagents. An intermediary boronate complex was transformed stereospecifically to the corresponding secondary 2-alkenyl- and alkylboronates by migration of an introduced residue. Oxidative workup furnished the enantioenriched secondary alcohols.
