The recent synergy of machine learning (ML) with molecular synthesis has emerged as an increasingly powerful platform in organic synthesis and catalysis. This merger has set the …
Optimization of the catalyst structure to simultaneously improve multiple reaction objectives (eg, yield, enantioselectivity, and regioselectivity) remains a formidable challenge. Herein …
New methods for the general asymmetric synthesis of sulfonimidamides are of great interest due to their applications in medicinal chemistry, agrochemical discovery, and academic …
The ability to forge difficult chemical bonds through catalysis has transformed society on all fronts, from feeding the ever-growing population to increasing life expectancies through the …
Impressive progress in computational asymmetric catalysis has been made in the past twenty years owing to advancements in algorithm and method development for predicting …

Conspectus Titanium is an attractive metal for catalytic reaction development: it is earth- abundant, inexpensive, and generally nontoxic. However—like most early transition metals …
In this study, we introduce an approach for predicting the enantioselectivity of P-chiral monophosphorus ligands from ligand-based descriptors that can be applied to catalytic …

In this Perspective, we discuss recent syntheses of 5-and 6-membered aromatic heterocycles via multicomponent reactions (MCRs) that are catalyzed by group 4–8 …
Conspectus Biological systems have often served as inspiration for the design of synthetic catalysts. The lock and key analogy put forward by Emil Fischer in 1894 to explain the high …
