Chiral [2.2.2] Dienes as Ligands for Rh(I) in Conjugate Additions of Boronic Acids to a Wide Range of Acceptors

Abstract
We document a series of investigations that led to new substituted [2.2.2]-diene ligands which display high selectivity in Rh(I)-catalyzed conjugate addition reactions to substrates not previously examined with diene ligands. Moreover, we disclose an unexpected, interesting effect that results from the introduction of a third CC onto the ligand scaffold (cf. 1).
