The application of a convenient one-pot synthetic strategy, utilizing an in situ formed organocatalyst, to the enantioselective synthesis of anti-leukaemia agent (R)-convolutamydine A has been demonstrated. <fig fig-type="graphical" position="float" orientation="portrait"> <graphic xlink.href="graphic/asorg-2014-0002-graphabs.jpg" position="float"...
Hydroamination of unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds is a useful C-N bond forming reaction as it leads to products (amines, imines, enamines) of high synthetic value. While the hydroamination of terminal alkenes and alkynes under metal catalysis has been widely developed, the corresponding reactions with internal substrates remain a challenge. Two recent studies by Buchwald and by Dong which focus on...
Application of a chiral counter-ion strategy in the Kharasch-Sosnovsky reaction is reported. Copper(I) phosphates obtained from axially chiral, BINOL-derived phosphoric acids were investigated as catalysts in the enantioselective allylic oxidation of acyclic alkenes. Good yields and high regioselectivity towards branched allylic ester have been achieved. The chiral phosphates investigated exhibited...
