AbstractA highly enantioselective conjugate addition of arylboronic acids to cyclic as well as acyclic aromatic and aliphatic nitroalkenes is presented. The rhodium complexes obtained from deoxycholic acid‐derived binaphthyl and flexible biphenyl phosphites showed good activity as well as very high enantioselectivity (ee up to 99%) in the conjugated addition even in the presence of challenging substrates such as 1‐nitrocyclohexene or aliphatic acyclic nitroalkenes.magnified image
