While tremendous advances have been made in asymmetric synthesis, the resolution of
racemates is still the most important industrial approach to the synthesis of chiral …

1. INTRODUCTION The catalysis of organic reactions by metals still constitutes one of the
most useful and powerful tools in organic synthesis. 1 Although asymmetric synthesis is …

A Ni/photoredox-catalyzed enantioselective reductive coupling of styrene oxides and aryl
iodides is reported. This reaction affords access to enantioenriched 2, 2-diarylalcohols from …

A nuclearity‐dependent enantiodivergent epoxide opening reaction has been developed, in
which both antipodes of chiral alcohol products are selectively accessed by mononuclear …

In an age when organic chemists have shown that even the most complex natural and
unnatural products can be synthesized, 1-3 the emphasis of synthetic chemistry is shifting to …

The review covers various aspects of fluorinated cycloalkyl (C3− C7) building blocks for drug
discovery, including their synthesis, key physicochemical properties, and biological and …

The first enantioselective cross-electrophile coupling of aryl bromides with meso-epoxides to
form trans-β-arylcycloalkanols is presented. The reaction is catalyzed by a combination of …

For the first time, a∼ 100% sulfonic acid functionalized metal–organic framework (MOF), MIL‐
101‐SO3H, with giant pores has been prepared by a hydrothermal process followed by a …

The environmentally amiable route to carbon-heteroatom bond formation, described by
Sharpless as 'click chemistry', has become known as a fast, efficient, and reliable approach …

Desymmetrization of meso compounds to yield chiral products proved to be a powerful
synthetic tool in asymmetric synthesis since it allows formation of multiple stereogenic …
