A novel protocol is established for the long-standing challenge of stereoselective geminal bisglycosylations of saccharides. The merger of PPh3 as a traceless glycosidic leaving group and 1,2-boronate migration enables the simultaneous introduction of C-C and C-B bonds at the anomeric stereogenic center of furanoses and pyranoses. The power of this method is showcased by a set of site-selective modifications of glycosylation products for the construction of bioactive conjugates and skeletons. A scarce metal-free 1,1-difunctionalization process of alkenes is also concomitantly demonstrated.
