The discovery of the hydroboration of olefins and alkynes heralded a new era of synthetic chemistry with profound implications for industrial practice. [1][2][3][4][5] The reigning stereochemical principle of hydroboration is the suprafacial delivery of hydrogen and boron to the same p-face of a given starting material, which results from stringent frontier-orbital control via a fourmembered transition state A (cis addition; Scheme 1).
