Simple and readily available chiral N-(sulfinyl)allylamines have been developed as efficient novel ligands for the rhodium-catalyzed enantioselective 1,2-addition of arylboronic acids to challenging aliphatic a-keto...
Density functional calculations have been performed to comparatively investigate two possible pathways of Au(I)-catalyzed Conia-ene reaction of β-ketoesters with alkynes. Our studies find that, under the assistance...
Direct asymmetric aldol additions of acetone/and butanone to a-ketoesters were achieved using L-proline as a chiral catalyst. Various optically active a-hydroxyesters were obtained in the yields of 43%-93% with enanti...
