Catalysis by small molecules (≤ 1000 Da, 10− 9 m) that are capable of binding and
activating substrates through attractive, noncovalent interactions has emerged as an …

Covering: 2000 to 2015 Molecules containing vicinal all-carbon quaternary stereocenters
are found in many secondary metabolites, and they exhibit a variety of biological and …

We describe the fully stereodivergent, dual catalytic α-allylation of linear aldehydes. The
reaction proceeds via direct iridium-catalyzed substitution of racemic allylic alcohols with …

An efficient method for the diastereo‐and enantioselective construction of vicinal all‐carbon
quaternary stereocenters through palladium‐catalyzed decarboxylative cycloaddition of …

This review summarizes the advances in the catalytic enantioselective construction of vicinal
quaternary carbon stereocenters, introduces major synthetic strategies and discusses their …

Herein we disclose a scalable organocatalytic direct arylation approach for the regio-and
atroposelective synthesis of non-C 2-symmetric 2, 2′-dihydroxy-1, 1′-binaphthalenes …

The field of biomimetic chemistry encompasses a wide variety of subfields, including
biomimetic catalysis, bioinspired self-assembly, and biomimetic reactions in total synthesis …

The first catalytic asymmetric Fischer indolization is reported. In the presence of a 5 mol%
loading of a novel spirocyclic chiral phosphoric acid, 4-substituted cyclohexanone-derived …

The diastereo‐and enantioselective construction of vicinal all‐carbon quaternary
stereocenters is a formidable task. We here report a synergistic bimetallic catalysis via a …

The development of a general catalytic method for the direct and stereoselective
construction of contiguous all-carbon quaternary stereocentres remains a formidable …
