Abstract

Chiral α-aminoboronic acids and their derivatives are generally useful as bioactive compounds and some have been approved as therapeutic agents. Here we report a NiH-catalysed asymmetric hydroamidation process that with a simple amino alcohol ligand can easily produce a wide range of highly enantioenriched α-aminoboronates from alkenyl boronates and dioxazolones under mild conditions. The reaction is proposed to proceed by an enantioselective hydrometallation followed by an inner-sphere nitrenoid transfer and C–N bond forming sequence. The synthetic utility of this transformation was demonstrated by the efficient synthesis of a current pharmaceutical agent, Vaborbactam.
