The chiral oxazoline motif is present in many ligands that have been extensively applied in a
series of important metal-catalyzed enantioselective reactions. This Review aims to provide …

High acidity and structural confinement are pivotal elements in asymmetric acid catalysis.
The recently introduced imidodiphosphorimidate (IDPi) Brønsted acids have met with …

We have developed a photoinduced copper‐catalyzed alkylation of terminal alkynes with
primary, secondary, or tertiary alkyl iodides as electrophiles. The reaction has a broad …

The enantioselective synthesis of isochroman motifs has been accomplished by palladium
(II)‐catalyzed allylic C− H oxidation from terminal olefin precursors. Critical to the success of …

A photoresponsive chiral catalyst based on an oligotriazole‐functionalized unidirectional
molecular motor has been developed for stereodivergent anion binding catalysis. The motor …

The first one‐pot enantioselective oxidative coupling of cyclic benzylic ethers with aldehydes
has been developed. A variety of benzylic ethers were transformed into the corresponding …

The omnipresence of Csingle bondH bonds in organic compounds renders them highly
attractive targets for the installation of functional groups towards the construction of valuable …

The first catalytic asymmetric cross-dehydrogenative coupling of cyclic carbamates and
terminal alkynes has been established. The reaction features high enantiocontrol and …

A highly enantioselective copper‐catalyzed alkynylation of quinolinium salts is reported. The
reaction employs StackPhos, a newly developed imidazole‐based chiral biaryl P, N ligand …

A direct enantioselective synthesis of substituted oxygen heterocycles from lactol acetates
and enolsilanes has been realized using a highly reactive and confined …
