title: Surprisingly Facile C-H Activation in the Course of Oxime-Directed Catalytic Asymmetric Hydroboration.
abstract: Deuterium-labeling studies carried out in conjunction with investigations into the directed catalytic asymmetric hydroboration of unsaturated oxime ethers reveal a surprisingly facileortho-metallation or σ-bond metathesis pathway that that diverts the expected course of CAHB to a tandem C-H activation/hydroboration reaction pathway.
