Asymmetric Cobalt-Catalyzed Diels−Alder Reactions of a Boron-Functionalized 1,3-Diene with Alkynes and Allylboration with Aldehydes

Abstract
[Structure: see text] A cobalt(I)-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction of a 1-boron-functionalized 1,3-diene is the key step in a one-pot reaction interconnecting three simple starting materials to obtain a multifunctionalized product. This product incorporates a stereogenic quaternary center next to a stereogenic secondary alcohol functionality generated with a very high degree of regio- and diastereoselectivity and good enantioselectivity in the presence of a chiral ligand such as (S,S)-Norphos.
