Goldfogel M, Meek S
Chem Sci . 2018 Aug; 7(7):4079-4084. PMID: 30155052
An efficient and diastereoselective (CDC)-Rh-catalyzed hydroalkylation of dienes with 1,3-oxazol-5(4)-ones is reported. Aryl and alkyl substituted dienes are converted to α,α-substituted oxazolones (24 examples) by the formation of -substituted quaternary...

Green J, Joannou M, Murray S, Zanghi J, Meek S
ACS Catal . 2018 Mar; 7(7):4441-4445. PMID: 29520326
Catalytic enantioselective synthesis of 1-hydroxy-2,3-bisboronate esters through multicomponent borylation/1,2-addition is reported. Catalyst and substrates are readily available, form both a C-B and C-C bond, and generate up to three contiguous...

Murray S, Luc E, Meek S
Org Lett . 2018 Jan; 20(2):469-472. PMID: 29319323
A practical and broadly applicable catalytic method for the synthesis of (E)-alkenylborons is presented. Reactions are promoted by [Pd(Cl)(η-CH)] and proceed by the dehydroboration of cyclic borates. Through the use...

Marcum J, Roberts C, Manan R, Cervarich T, Meek S
J Am Chem Soc . 2017 Oct; 139(44):15580-15583. PMID: 29058881
Catalytic enantioselective addition of N-heteroarenes to terminal and internal 1,3-dienes is reported. Reactions are promoted by 5 mol % of Rh catalyst supported by a new chiral pincer carbodicarbene ligand...

Murray S, Liang M, Meek S
J Am Chem Soc . 2017 Sep; 139(40):14061-14064. PMID: 28934852
A copper-catalyzed three-component linchpin coupling method for the stereoselective union of readily available epoxides and allyl electrophiles is disclosed. Transformations employ [B(pin)]-methane as a conjunctive reagent, resulting in the formation...

Goldfogel M, Roberts C, Manan R, Meek S
Org Lett . 2016 Dec; 19(1):90-93. PMID: 27996276
Catalytic intermolecular hydroalkylation of dienes with silyloxyfuran nucleophiles is reported. Reactions are catalyzed by 5 mol % of a (CDC)-Rh complex and proceed in up to 87% yield and 6:1...

Murray S, Green J, Tailor S, Meek S
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2016 Jun; 55(31):9065-9. PMID: 27321039
The catalytic enantioselective synthesis of boronate-substituted tertiary alcohols through additions of diborylmethane and substituted 1,1-diborylalkanes to α-ketoesters is reported. The reactions are catalyzed by readily available chiral phosphine/copper(I) complexes and...

Joannou M, Moyer B, Goldfogel M, Meek S
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2015 Sep; 54(47):14141-5. PMID: 26404842
A catalytic protocol for the diastereoselective synthesis of anti-1,2-hydroxyboronates is described. The process provides access to secondary alkyl organoborons. The deborylative 1,2-addition reactions of alkyl 1,1-diborons proceed in the presence...

Joannou M, Moyer B, Meek S
J Am Chem Soc . 2015 Apr; 137(19):6176-9. PMID: 25905917
The first catalytic enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of 1,2-hydroxyboronates is reported. Reactions are promoted by a readily available chiral monodentate phosphoramidite-copper complex in the presence of an alkyl 1,1-diboron reagent....
