Catalytic Enantioselective Aminopalladation–Heck Cascade

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Hua Wu, Yuping He, Jian Cao

Domino processes initiated by intramolecular nucleopalladation of alkynes have been developed into powerful synthetic tools for the synthesis of functionalized heterocycles. However, a catalytic enantioselective version of this class of reactions remains s ...

C-C bond activation enabled by dyotropic rearrangement of Pd(iv) species

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Hua Wu, Jian Cao

The weak carbon-metal bond combined with the kinetic inertness of the carbon-carbon bond renders metal-catalysed C-C bond activation to be highly challenging. Most of the reported C-C bond activation methodologies involve strain-releasing cleavage of small ...

Desymmetrization of Prochiral Cyclopentenes Enabled by Enantioselective Palladium-Catalyzed Oxidative Heck Reaction

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Jian Cao, Guihua Chen

In the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(TFA)2 and a chiral Pyox ligand under oxygen atmosphere, oxidative Heck reaction between arylboronic acids and 4- substituted or 4,4-disubstituted cyclopent-1-enes afforded the chiral arylated products with concur ...
