A Cu-catalyzed borylative carboxamidation reaction has been developed using vinylarenes and isocyanates. Alkynes, branched 1,3-dienes and bicyclic alkenes were also found to be competent coupling partners. Using a chiral phosphan-amine ligand, an enantioselective variant of this transformation was developed, affording a set of α-chiral amides with unprecedented levels of enantioselectivity. The synthetic utility of the method was demonstrated through a series of representative stereoretentive post-catalytic derivatizations.
