ABSTRACT
We report a copper-catalyzed reductive aldol addition to aldehydes and ketones, with pinacolborane as stoichiometric reductant, that results in the generation of stereodefined syn-aldol products. Cyclic, acyclic, fused and spirocyclic aldols bearing contiguous stereocenters are obtained with excellent yields and diastereoselectivities. Moreover, enantioselective reactions could be carried out with cycloalkenones to deliver aldols bearing three contiguous stereocenters and with up to 98 % ee. Computations reveal that the enolborate intermediate undergoes the syn-aldol reaction via a twist-boat transition state that is stabilized by non-classical hydrogen bonding interactions.
