Abstract

Asymmetric synthesis of optically pure organoboron compounds is a topic that has received a number of attentions owing to their particular importance in synthetic chemistry and drug discovery. We herein highlight recent advances in the iridium-catalyzed C–H borylation of diarylmethylamines and cyclopropanes enabled by chiral bidentate boryl ligands.
