Chiral α-substituted allylboronic acids were synthesized by asymmetric homologation of alkenylboronic acids using CF3/TMS-diazomethanes in the presence of BINOL catalyst and ethanol. The chiral α-substituted allylboronic acids were reacted with aldehydes or oxidized to alcohols in situ with a high degree of chirality transfer. The oxygen-sensitive allylboronic acids can be purified via their isolated diaminonaphthalene (DanH)-protected derivatives. The highly reactive purified allylboronic acids reacted in a self-catalyzed reactio
