Catalytic Asymmetric 1,6-Diene Cyclization via Designed Carbocationic 5- and 6- exo Pathways
Catalytic asymmetric electrophilic alkene functionalization provides a powerful strategy for the construction of complex chiral molecules. Despite significant progress in this field, the asymmetric functionalization of alkenes promoted by an electrophilic carbon species via an exo-cyclization mode remains a formidabl...
