Chiral (Acyloxy)borane Catalyzed Asymmetric Allylation of Aldehydes

Abstract
Chiral (acyloxy)borane, obtained from (2R, 3R)-2-O-(2,6-diisopropoxybenzoyl)tartaric acid and tetrahydrofuranborane complex, catalyzes the allylation of achiral aldehydes with allylsilanes to afford homoallylic alcohols with high enantiomeric excess. The reactions proceed in a catalytic manner.
