title: Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroarylation of 3-pyrrolines giving 3-arylpyrrolidines: protonation as a key step.
abstract: A hydroxorhodium complex coordinated with (R)-segphos was found to catalyze the hydroarylation of 3-pyrrolines with arylboroxines under neutral conditions to give 3-arylpyrrolidines with high enantioselectivity in high yields.
