摘要

Transition-metal-catalysed asymmetric C(sp3)–C(sp3) bond-forming reactions relying on directing groups or π-conjugated systems as auxiliaries have achieved tremendous success. In contrast, non-conjugated silyl groups inherently lack these auxiliary properties, rendering their application in enantioselective C(sp3)–C(sp3) coupling particularly challenging. Here, we report a cobalt-catalysed enantioselective hydroalkylation of vinylsilanes and allylsilanes, wherein α-silyl or β-silyl substituents are used to facilitate the enantioselective C(sp3)–C(sp3) bond formation. Notably, this strategy has been extended to germanium-containing alkenes. The protocol exhibits remarkable enantioselectivity and functional group compatibility, thereby establishing a versatile platform for the stereodefined synthesis of synthetically useful chiral organosilanes and organogermanes in pharmaceutical chemistry.
