Transition Metal Catalyzed Enantioselective Borylative Cyclization Reactions

Abstract

Abstract Due to the significance of corresponding products, enantioselective borylative cyclization reactions have been studied intensively in recent years. Many groups have developed efficient methods to transform unsaturated system into asymmetric cyclic organoboron compounds with the ring‐size range from three‐membered to six‐membered in general. Notably, in some cases, fused rings which contain more than two contiguous chiral centers could be obtained by this kind of strategies. This review summarized and reviewed the recent advances in this field and classified these work according to the species of metal catalysts.
