title: Highly regio- and enantioselective catalytic asymmetric hydroboration of α-substituted styrenyl derivatives.
abstract: The catalytic asymmetric hydroboration of a variety of 1,1-disubstituted olefins has been achieved with excellent yields, perfect regioselectivity and in some cases, high levels of enantioselectivity using readily accessible iridium catalyst.
