title: Rhodium/diene-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of arylboronic acids to alpha,beta-unsaturated Weinreb amides.
abstract: Rhodium/chiral diene (S,S)- complex has been found to effectively catalyze the 1,4-addition of arylboronic acids to alpha,beta-unsaturated Weinreb amides, furnishing useful beta-chiral Weinreb amides in high enantioselectivity.
