Stereocontrolled enantioselective total synthesis of the [2+2] quadrigemine alkaloids. [PDF]
A unified strategy for enantioselective total synthesis of all stereoisomers of the 2+2 family of quadrigemine alkaloids is reported. In this approach, two enantioselective intramolecular Heck reactions are carried out at the same time on precursors ...

Alilação e crotilação catalítica e enantiosseletiva de aldeídos
The field of chiral catalysis has experienced explosive growth over the last two decades. By now, many of the classical reactions in organic synthesis can be carried out efficiently in asymmetric manner.

Phosphoramidite Gold(I)-Catalyzed Diastereo- and Enantioselective Synthesis of 3,4-Substituted Pyrrolidines [PDF]
In this article the utility of phosphoramidite ligands in enantioselective AuI catalysis was explored in the development of highly diastereo- and enantioselective AuI-catalyzed cycloadditions of allenenes.

Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of the alkaloid (+)-myrtine [PDF]
A new protocol for the asymmetric synthesis of trans-2,6-disubstituted-4-piperidones has been developed using a catalytic enantioselective conjugate addition reaction in combination with a diastereoselective lithiation–substitution sequence; an efficient

Enantioselective optical gradient forces using 3D structured vortex light [PDF]
Here we highlight enantioselective optical gradient forces present in 3D structured optical vortex tweezing systems. One chiral force originates from the circular polarization of the light, while remarkably the other is independent of the input polarization, even occurring for unpolarized light, and is not present in 2D structured light nor propagating

Three Dimensional Orientation of Complex Molecules Excited by Two-Color Femtosecond Pulses [PDF]
We study the excitation of asymmetric-top (including chiral) molecules by two-color femtosecond laser pulses. In the cases of non-chiral asymmetric-top molecules excited by an orthogonally polarized two-color pulse, we demonstrate, classically and quantum mechanically, three-dimensional orientation.

Highly efficient synthesis of the tricyclic core of Taxol by cascade metathesis [PDF]
An efficient enantioselective synthesis of the ABC tricyclic core of the anticancer drug Taxol is reported. The key step of this synthesis is a cascade metathesis reaction, which leads in one operation to the required tricycle if appropriate fine-tuning ...
