Erratum - Designing the Secondary Coordination Sphere in Small-Molecule Catalysis

It was brought to the authors’ attention by the RetractoBot initiative (https://www.retracted.net/) that a paper that was cited in their article was retracted a year after the article was published. Therefore, the authors wish to remove the sentence mentioning the retracted paper and the related reference.The paragraph below Scheme 4 on page 332 should correctly read: Phipps and co-workers later demonstrated that a meta-selective borylation could also be facilitated by ion pairing rather than hydrogen bonds.18The following sentence “Sawamura and co-workers recently harnessed both hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions to form an enzyme-like cavity for site-selective asymmetric remote C–H borylation of aliphatic amides and esters.19” was deleted. Reference 19, referring to the retracted article (Reyes, R. L.; Sato, M.; Iwai, T.; Suzuki, K.; Maeda, S.; Sawamura, M. Science 2020, 369, 970) was deleted. The authors realize this information is beneficial for the chemistry community as it helps the readers of Synlett to avoid citing a retracted paper.
