A copper(I)-chiral secondary diamine (L-e) complex catalyzes an enantioselective conjugate boration of β,β-disubstituted enones in high yields and up to 99% ee. Product chiral tertiary organoboronates can be converted to enantiomerically enriched cross-aldol products between ketones without any racemization.
