High Efficiency and Enantioselectivity in the Rh-Catalyzed Conjugate Addition of Arylboronic Acids Using Monodentate Phosphoramidites

Abstract
A very fast reaction and enantioselectivities >98% have been reached in the rhodium-catalyzed arylboronic acid addition to enones using a monodentate phosphoramidite ligand. Temperature-dependent studies show that monodentate phosphoramidites form stable complexes with metals and can induce high enantioselectivities even at high temperatures in polar solvents.
