A Comparative Study of C2-Symmetric and C1-Symmetric Hydroxamic Acids in Vanadium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Epoxidation of Allylic Alcohols [PDF]
MoleculesHydroxamic acids are emerging as versatile chiral ligands for metal-catalyzed asymmetric oxidations due to their tunable electronic and steric environments.

Enantioselective protonation [PDF]
Nature Chemistry, 2009 Enantioselective protonation is a common process in biosynthetic sequences. The decarboxylase and esterase enzymes that effect this valuable transformation are able to control both the steric environment around the proton acceptor (typically an enolate) and the proton donor (typically a thiol).

Comprehensive Analysis of a Yeast Lipase Family in the Yarrowia Clade. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Lipases are currently the subject of intensive studies due to their large range of industrial applications. The Lip2p lipase from the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica (YlLIP2) was recently shown to be a good candidate for different biotechnological applications.

Enantioselective Tsuji Allylations [PDF]
Chemistry – An Asian Journal, 2007 AbstractThe family of allylation reactions developed by Tsuji in the 1980s are capable of generating tertiary and quaternary carbon stereocenters from several synthetic precursors. Despite the utility of these transformations, they have seen little use in the synthesis of natural products.

Nature Communications, 2023 Enantioselectivity of helical aggregation is conventionally directed either by its homochiral ingredients or by introduction of chiral catalysis. The fundamental question, then, is whether helical aggregation that consists only of achiral components can ...

Molecules, 2021 The importance of yeast old yellow enzymes is increasingly recognized for direct asymmetric reduction of (E/Z)-citral to (R)-citronellal. As one of the most performing old yellow enzymes, the enzyme OYE3 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C exhibited ...

Enantioselective Self-Replicators
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2023 Self-replicating molecules provide a simple approach for investigating fundamental processes in scenarios of the emergence of life. Although homochirality is an important aspect of life and of how it emerged, the effects of chirality on self-replicators have received only little attention so far.
