Popis: Abstract Palladium‐catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura (SM) coupling is a valuable method for forming C─C bonds, including those between aryl moieties. However, achieving atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral styrenes via SM coupling remains challenging. In this study, a palladium‐catalyzed atroposelective Suzuki–Miyaura coupling between gem‐diborylalkenes and aryl halides is presented. Using the monophosphine ligand Me‐BI‐DIME (L2), a range of axially chiral tetra‐substituted acyclic styrenes with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities are successfully synthesized. Control experiments reveal that the gem‐diboryl group significantly influences the product enantioselectivities and the coupling prefers to occur at sites with lower steric hindrance. Additionally, the alkenyl boronate group in the products proves versatile, allowing for various transformations while maintaining high optical purities.
