  1. Abstract

    A simple one‐pot synthesis ofβ‐hydroxyallenamides is reported. This procedure entails chemo‐ and regioselective hydroboration of 3‐en‐1‐ynyl‐sulfonylamides with Cy2BH followed by homoallenylation of aldehydes to yield β‐hydroxyallenamides (up to 94% yield and >20:1 dr). Controlled synthesis of up to three continuous stereochemical elements was realized. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest a concerted Zimmerman‐Traxler chair‐like transition state. Initial results suggest that enantio‐ and diastereoselective synthesis of β‐hydroxyallenamides with optically active hydroboration reagents is viable.
