Rhodium catalysis : The first example of a catalytic asymmetric addition of arylboronic acids to α‐ketoesters was realized by using a chiral Rh I –spirophosphite ligand complex in aqueous solvent to provide tertiary α‐hydroxyesters in good yields with high enantioselectivities (see scheme; DCE=1,2‐dichloroethane).
