Photoinduced Nickel-Catalyzed Enantioconvergent Synthesis of Allylic 1,3-Diols Bearing a Quaternary Stereocenter
An efficient and highly selective photoredox/nickel dual-catalytic strategy has been developed for the synthesis of chiral allylic 1,3-diols bearing fully substituted quaternary stereocenters from readily available vinyl cyclic carbonates (VCCs) and aldehydes. The transformation proceeds through in situ generation of...
