Abstract
The chiral boron enolates 7-14 add to aldehydes with high levels of stereocontrol in a predictable sense. These enolates are designed specifically for the aldol-based construction of the highly oxygenated and stereochemically challenging structures found in polyketide natural products, as illustrated here by their application to the total synthesis of concanamycin F and discodermolide.
