• imine species provide a very flexible approach to the arylglycine scaffold [2][9]. The Petasis borono-Mannich reaction constitutes a prominent example for such an imine-based multicomponent reaction (Scheme 1a). The reaction of glyoxylic acid, an amine component and an arylboronic acid offers a highly

• modular access to arylglycines from three readily available building blocks [10][11][12]. The Petasis borono-Mannich reaction usually proceeds in the absence of any external catalyst via zwitterionic intermediates and an intramolecular transfer of the aryl residue form the activated boronate to the

• electrophilic iminium carbon, leading to the amine product as racemic mixture. Consequently, examples for asymmetric Petasis borono-Mannich reactions are rare [13] and usually rely on the utilization of chiral amine components in stoichiometric amounts [10][11]. As part of our research program utilizing the in

This was the first report of this type of transformation, which is now referred as the Petasis borono–Mannich reaction, and was later extended to a wide variety of other aldehydes, such as glyoxylic acid (for example), boronic acids, esters or trifluoroborates and
