title: Iron-catalyzed 1,4-hydroboration of 1,3-dienes.
abstract: A chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective iron-catalyzed 1,4-hydroboration of dienes that affords gamma-disubstituted allylboranes has been developed. 1,4-Hydroboration of 2-substituted dienes forms allylborane products with (E)-trisubstituted double bonds exclusively.
