Snapper / This dissertation will present three projects focusing on the enantioselective synthesis and stereospecific transformation of alkylboronates. The first project describes the development of a nickel-catalyzed enantioselective dicarbofunctionalization of alkenylboronates, which provides a modular route to secondary alkylboronic esters. Intramolecular reaction leads to enantioselective synthesis of exocyclic boronates. The second project depicts a new method for the synthesis of azetidines, pyrrolidines and piperidines via an intramolecular amination of alkylboronic esters. Regioselective amination of vicinal bis(boronates) allows the synthesis of saturated azacycles bearing boronic ester substitutions that can serve as useful synthetic handles. As the transformation is stereospecific, stereodefined cyclic amines can be synthesized from the enantioenriched boronic esters. The method is applied to the synthesis of an intermediate towards a Kras G12C inhibitor. The third project describes the development of a new chiral auxiliary on boron that can be easily synthesized from inexpensive starting materials. The auxiliary is applied to a diastereoselective radical ring-opening/closing [3+2] cycloaddition of cyclopropylanilines with alkenylboron species. / Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2022. / Submitted to: Boston College.
