Practical asymmetric catalysis using transition metal complexes was inspired by the work of
Kagan1 and Knowles. 2 Their important results, based on the use of chiral phosphines as …

Because of their ready accessibility, modular nature, and applicability in a wide range of
metalcatalyzed transformations, compounds containing a chiral oxazoline ring have become …

The completely revised third edition of this four-volume classic is fully updated and now
includes such topics as as CH-activation and multicomponent reactions. It describes the …

New organic reactivity has often been discovered by happenstance. Several recent research
efforts have attempted to leverage this to discover new reactions. In this Review, we attempt …

In this review, an attempt is made to systemise the rôle which bidentate phosphinamine (P,
N) ligands play in asymmetric catalysis. The ligands will be classified, not by the reaction to …

This work explores the potential of iridium complexes of the N-heterocyclic carbene
oxazoline ligands 1 in asymmetric hydrogenations of arylalkenes. The accessible carbene …

Addition and substitution reactions with carbon nucleophiles are fundamental processes in
organic synthesis, and the development of general catalytic asymmetric variants thereof is …

A new fluorescence-based assay for high-throughput screening of reactions that couple two
organic molecules is described. The assay involves reaction of one substrate containing a …

The discovery of efficient methods for gaining access to enantiomerically pure compounds in
the development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and flavors has been a substantial …

A 96-member “pyridine” library consisting of both rationally chosen and “random” members
was used to screen Ullmann ether forming reactions. The reaction of 2-bromo-4, 6 …
