Catalytic enantioselective borylation reactions of unsaturated bonds as powerful tools for the synthesis diverse chiral organoboron compounds have gained much attention and wide applications in various fields. However, atroposelective arylboration reaction with carbon–carbon triple 1,3-enynes to obtain axially 1,3-dienylboronates remains an elusive significant challenge. Hence, we develop a cooperative copper- palladium-catalyzed assemble plentiful function enriched single step from easily available 1,3-enynes, B2pin2, aryl bromides high levels chemo-, regio-, stereo-, atroposelectivity. The mild conditions lead good functional group tolerance, which is proven by broad substrate scope late-stage functionalizations bioactive or drug molecules.

Axial chirality is historically epitomized by biaryl compounds containing rotationally impeded aryl-aryl linkage. As the field of atroposelective catalysis advances, synthesis and application less common scaffolds such as alkenes have now come to fore. The manifestation axial in aryl was hypothesized 1928 first resolution achieved nearly a decade later. However, catalytic asymmetric construction axially chiral open-chain appeared only 2017 which ushered renewed focus on these structures.
