Giving it a boost : A mechanistic study of the enantioselective asymmetric titled reaction with allyldiisopropoxyborane catalyzed by chiral biphenols revealed a key ligand exchange process which liberates isopropyl alcohol. The addition of i PrOH to the reaction increases the overall rate and enantioselectivity. As a result an improved reaction, employing allyldioxaborinane with 1 and t BuOH, resulted in high product yields and enantioselectivities.
