Chiral organoboronates have played a critical role in organic chemistry and in the
development of materials science and pharmaceuticals. Much effort has been devoted to …

Non‐racemic chiral boronic esters are recognised as immensely valuable building blocks in
modern organic synthesis. Their stereospecific transformation into a variety of functional …

Catalytic asymmetric synthesis has been one of the most active research areas in chemistry
(Nobel Prize in 2001). The development of efficient chiral catalysts plays a crucial role in …

Asymmetric catalysis with transition‐metal complexes is the basis for a vast array of
stereoselective transformations and has changed the face of modern synthetic chemistry …

In recent years, earth-abundant transition metal catalysts have been used to make great
achievements on homogenous catalysis, including the field of enantioselective …

We report the synthesis of cobalt complexes of novel iminopyridine–oxazoline (IPO) ligands
and their application to the asymmetric hydroboration of 1, 1-disubstituted aryl alkenes. The …

Hydrogen atom abstraction is an important elementary chemical process but is very difficult
to carry out enantioselectively. We have developed catalysts, readily derived from the …

We report the incorporation of large substituents based on heavy main-group elements that
are atypical in ligand architectures to enhance dispersion interactions and, thereby …

Discovering efficient methods for gaining access to enantiomerically pure compounds in the
development of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and flavors has been a great challenge for …

A highly regio-and enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed hydroboration/hydrogenation of
internal alkynes with HBpin and a hydrogen balloon in one pot was developed. A new type …
