Despite recent advancements in the development of catalytic Markovnikov-selective hydroboration alkenes, metal-free procedure has long remained an unsolved challenge. Here, we report organocatalytic hy-droboration aryl alkenes using a commercially available quaternary ammonium catalyst. The method is operationally simple, scalable, and compatible with wide variety substrates it can be successfully applied synthesis active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) such as Chlorphenoxamine. Through in-depth experimental DFT studies, elucidate nuanced understanding mechanism regioselectivity this reaction.
