Abstract: | Catalytic enantioselective conjunctive cross‐coupling has been developed to construct tertiary alkylboronic esters. These reactions occur with good yield and enantioselectivity for a range of substrates. Mechanistic experiments reveal aspects of the catalytic cycle that allow hindered substrates to react without significant complicating side reactions. |
