Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of Inherently Chiral Macrocycles by Dynamic Kinetic Resolution

Kinetically fast racemization of chiral substrates through an achiral intermediate and enantioselective functionalization of one of the enantiomeric substrates forms the basis of the dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of centrally chiral molecules. We report ...

Chalcogen bonding catalysis

Jieping Zhu

Catalysts play a major role in chemical synthesis, and catalysis is considered to be a green and economic process. Catalysis is dominated by covalent interactions between the catalyst and substrate. The design of non-covalent catalysts came into limelight ...

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of (+)-Stephadiamine

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Baochao Yang, Guang Li

An asymmetric synthesis of (+)-stephadiamine has been accomplished featuring (a) an enantioselective dearomatizative Michael addition to generate a quaternary stereocenter; (b) a domino sequence involving reductive generation of nitrone from γ-nitro ketone ...

Chiral magnetohydrodynamics with zero total chirality

Kohei Kamada, Jennifer Waltraud Schober

We study the evolution of magnetic fields coupled with chiral fermion asymmetry in the framework of chiral magnetohydrodynamics with zero initial total chirality. The initial magnetic field has a turbulent spectrum peaking at a certain characteristic scale ...

Dielectric Tetramer Nanoresonators Supporting Strong Superchiral Fields for Vibrational Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy

Hatice Altug, Felix Ulrich Richter, Yasaman Jahani, Rui Lu, Bang Hyun Lee, Ming-Lun Tseng, Longfang Ye

Chirality (C) is a fundamental property of objects, in terms of symmetry. It is extremely important to sense and distinguish chiral molecules in the fields of biochemistry, science, and medicine. Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy, obtained ...

Enantio- and diastereoselective construction of vicinal C(sp(3)) centres via nickel-catalysed hydroalkylation of alkenes

Xile Hu, Chao Fan, Srikrishna Bera

In drug discovery, the proportion of aliphatic carbons (C(sp(3))) and the presence of chiral carbons in organic molecules are positively correlated to their chance of clinical success. Although methods exist for the synthesis of chiral C(sp(3))-rich molecu ...

Intermolecular Palladium(0)-Catalyzed Atropo-enantioselective C-H Arylation of Heteroarenes

Nicolai Cramer, Qui-Hien Nguyen

Atropisomeric (hetero)biaryls are motifs with increasing significance in ligands, natural products, and biologically active molecules. The straightforward construction of the stereogenic axis by efficient C-H functionalization methods is extremely rare and ...

Correlation between Optical Activity and the Helical Molecular Orbitals of Allene and Cumulenes

Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Marc Hamilton Folkmann Garner

Helical frontier molecular orbitals (MOs) appear in disubstituted allenes and even-n cumulenes. Chiral molecules are optically active, but while these molecules are single-handed chiral, p-orbitals of both helicities are present. Here we computationally ex ...

Construction of Phosphorus and Sulfur Stereogenic Centers by Chiral Cyclopentadienyl Rhodium(III) Catalysis

Yang Sun

Phosphorus- and sulfur-stereogenic compounds are widely used as ligands in asymmetric transition-metal catalysis and as organocatalysts. These molecules also show a large potential for pharmaceutical and agricultural use. However, synthesizing them in a st ...
