Yne also a good dienophile : The cationic oxazaborolidine 1 promoted the formation of Diels–Alder adducts between acetylenic ketones and both cyclic and acyclic dienes in excellent yield with 99 %  ee (see scheme; Tf=trifluoromethanesulfonyl, TMS=trimethylsilyl). Importantly, high levels of asymmetric induction were also observed with dienophiles that lacked the typical hydrogen‐bonding motif required for other oxazaborolidinium‐mediated reactions.
