Enantioselective Synthesis of P-Stereogenic Phosphinates and Phosphine Oxides by Molybdenum-Catalyzed Asymmetric Ring-Closing Metathesis.
James S. Harvey,Steven J. Malcolmson,Katherine S. Dunne,Simon J. Meek,Amber L. Thompson,Richard R. Schrock,Amir H. Hoveyda,Veronique Gouverneur +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a catalytic enantioselective desymmetrization process of prochiral P-templates was used to explore ARCM with the chirality arising from the formation of a stereogenic center.
Catalytic and Stereoselective Transformations with Easily Accessible and Purchasable Allyl and Alkenyl Fluorides.
Paulo H. S. Paioti,Stella A. Gonsales,Shibo Xu,Ali Nikbakht,Diana C. Fager,Qinghe Liu,Amir H. Hoveyda +6 more
TL;DR: In this article , the use of alkenyl and allylic fluorides in preparation of stereochemically defined organofluorine molecules is discussed, and the state-of-the-art is presented.
Z-Selective olefin metathesis reactions promoted by tungsten oxo alkylidene complexes.
TL;DR: Compound 5 is a highly effective catalyst for the Z-selective coupling of selected terminal olefins to give product in >75% yield with >99% Z configuration.
Small peptides as ligands for catalytic asymmetric alkylations of olefins. Rational design of catalysts or of searches that lead to them
TL;DR: The data presented point to the significance of the availability of a collection of catalysts, since subtle variations in substrate or nucleophile structure often call for a different optimal chiral ligand.
Molybdän‐ und Wolframimidoalkylidenkomplexe als effiziente Olefinmetathesekatalysatoren
TL;DR: The katalytische Olefinmetathese hat sich schnell zu einer der am haufigsten eingesetzten Transformationen der modernen chemischen Synthese entwickelt as discussed by the authors.
