The chiral oxazaborolidinium cation 1 promotes Diels-Alder reactions between 2-triisopropylsilyloxy-1,3-butadiene and a number of unsymmetrical 1,4-benzoquinones in a highly enantioselective and structurally selective manner. The basis for the enantioselectivity is explained rationally in terms of a preferred type of transition-state assembly. Selection rules have been developed that allow the prediction of the principal reaction product of Diels-Alder reaction between unsymmetrical diene and quinone components.

acid catalyst than protonated 1 (i.e., 2) for enantioselectiveDiels−Alderreactions. Only 4 mol % of catalyst 3 is required to achieve yields and enantiomeric purities of 90% over a broad range of achiraldienes and dienophiles. The ligand from which 3 is derived can be recovered easily and with high efficiency. The method is illustrated by 22 examples.
