Pin it down: A range of substrates that bear versatile functional groups with quaternary stereogenic centers have been prepared with very high enantioselectivity from tertiary boronic esters (see scheme; Cb=N,N-diisopropylcarbamoyl, pin=pinacolato). The preparation of allylboronic esters bearing contiguous quaternary and tertiary stereogenic centers, and applications to natural product synthesis are also reported.
