Both the ( Z )‐ and the ( E )‐γ‐alkoxy‐substituted allylboronates 1 and 3 have been prepared. They add to aldehydes with a diastereoselectivity generally exceeding 90% to give the syn ‐ ( 2 ) and anti ‐diol derivatives 4 , respectively. The structure of one of these adducts has been established by conversion into exo ‐brevicomin ( 26 ).
