TADDOL-derived phosphites and phosphoramidites are effective ligands for rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroborations of β,γ-unsaturated amides, achieving up to 99% ee. However, the sense of stereoinduction, R or S, is surprisingly dependent on rather subtle features of the ligand. For example, catalysts employing a TADDOL phenylphosphite and those using the closely related N-methylaniline-derived phosphoramidite of the same configuration give opposite enantiomers of the product. Those derived fr ...[more]
