London dispersion helps refine steric A-values: dispersion energy donor scales

E Solel, M Ruth, PR Schreiner - Journal of the American Chemical …, 2021 - ACS Publications
We suggest a scale of dispersion energy donors (DEDs) that allows for direct comparisons
with steric effects. This scale is based on the classic A-values and allows groups to reorient …

Conspectus Interactions between sterically crowded hydrocarbon-substituted ligands are
widely considered to be repulsive because of the intrusion of the electron clouds of the …

London dispersion interactions rather than steric hindrance determine the enantioselectivity of the Corey–Bakshi–Shibata reduction

C Eschmann, L Song, PR Schreiner - Angewandte Chemie, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract The well‐known Corey–Bakshi–Shibata (CBS) reduction is a powerful method for
the asymmetric synthesis of alcohols from prochiral ketones, often featuring high yields and …
