Kinetic resolution of racemic 1-alkyl-2-methylenecyclopropanes via silaborative C-C cleavage was efficiently catalyzed by a palladium complex bearing a chiral phosphoramidite, affording 2-boryl-3-silylmethyl-1-alkenes as major products with up to 92% ee. Enantioenrichment through parallel kinetic resolution, where the slower reacting enantiomer was converted to the constitutional isomer of the major product, may be involved as the crucial stereodiscriminating step.
