42. The first "a" and second "a" of 6aa are derived from the suffixes of 3a and 4a, respectively.

44. The Ar-Rh(I) species is formed by transmetalation between rhodium(I) and arylboroxine at the trans side to phosphorus, which is the most vacant coordination site and influenced by the trans effect of phosphine. See ref 17.

48. Another possibility is a boronic acid impurity in the boroxines, which were prepared by heating the corresponding boronic acids at 120 °C under 10 mmHg for 12 h. If the boronic acids remain impure, water is generated by forming boroxine in situ. The use of 4a, dried at 220 °C under 0.5 mmHg for 4 h prior to use, however, did not make a significant difference (6aa, 82%, 98% ee; PhCHO, 6%) under the conditions shown in Table 2, entry 4. Therefore, this possibility was excluded.
