A robust chiral N-heterocyclic carbene precursor based on[2.2]paracyclophane was designed and synthesized for a highly enantioselective metal-free catalytic boration. Enantioselective 1,4-addition of a commercially available bis(pinacolato)-diboron (B2(pin)2) to chalcones was achieved by using the new bifunctional chiral carbene as catalyst, affording the corresponding products in up to 99% yield and 97% enantiomeric excess. Moreover, it was found that water used as the additive plays a key role in the carbene-catalyzed enantioselective boration.
