In this paper is described an easily synthesized chiral diazaborolidine that is inexpensive, stable, and provides excellent stereoselection across a number of reaction classes. These versatile compounds possess utility in four different classes of cycloaddition reactions, offering good yield and stereoselectivity. X-ray structure analysis provides insight about the origin of stereocontrol.
