The KHMDS-catalyzed tertiary alkylation of aldehydes, ketones or imines using tertiary benzylic organoboronates is reported. This protocol permitted the use of tertiary benzylic alkylboronates as the tertiary alkyl anion for construction of highly congested contiguous sp3 carbon centers. The mild and transition-metal-free reaction conditions are attractive features of the protocol.

A highly regio- and stereospecific rhodium-catalyzed allylic alkylation of tertiary allylic alcohol derivatives with a cyanohydrin pronucleophile is described. This direct and operationally simple protocol provides a fundamentally novel approach toward the synthesis of α-quaternary substituted ketones and circumvents many of the inherent problems associated with conventional enolate alkylation reactions. The stereospecific variant of this reaction provides the enantiomerically enriched α-quaternary substituted allylic aryl ketone, which is a particularly challenging intermediate for more conventional enolate-based strategies.
