Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Cassiol [PDF]
An enantioselective total synthesis of (+)-cassiol is reported. The complex derived from Pd-2(pmdba)(3) and enantiopure t-BuPHOX ligand catalyzes enantioconvergent decarboxylative alkylation to generate the quaternary carbon stereocenter at an early ...

Synthesis of cyclopropanes via organoiron methodology: stereoselective preparation of cis-2-(2’-carboxycyclopropyl)glycine [PDF]
A stereoselective route to cis-2-(2′-carboxycyclopropyl)glycine has been developed. exo-Nucleophilic addition to the (bicyclo[5.1.0]octadienyl)iron(1+) cation establishes the relative stereochemistry at the cyclopropane ring and the α-stereocenter ...

Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of Hetero biaryl Ketones by Zinc- Catalyzed Asymmetr ic Hydrosil ylation [PDF]
Adiastereo- and highly enantioselective dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of configurationally labile hetero- biaryl ketones is described. The DKR proceeds by zinc- catalyze dhydrosilylation of the carbonyl group ,thus leading to ...

Biocatalytic Synthesis of Stereospecific Triketide Lactones using Polyketide Synthases [PDF]
Polyketide synthases are modular enzymes that create and modify large acyl chains. The domains and modules of polyketide synthases allow us to create molecules that resemble naturally occurring products by applying a biocatalytic in vitro in vivo ...
