Kinetic resolution (KR) and dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of γ‐aryl and heteroaryl‐substituted butenolides via CuH‐catalyzed 1,4‐hydroboration using pinacolborane is reported. With a copper‐Ph‐BPE catalyst, selectivity factors were extremely high ( s =>400) with regard to the kinetic resolution of β‐methyl‐γ‐phenyl butenolide; DKR was possible in the presence of an amine base (DBU), which facilitated racemization of the starting unsaturated lactones. The reaction provided easy access to highly enantioenriched γ‐butyrolactones (>99% ee) containing β,γ‐substituents.
