Alkene functionality can be found in the majority of natural products, drugs, catalysts and organic materials. Therefore, methods of C-C double bond formation constitute a cornerstone of organic synthesis. Selective formation of either (Z)- or (E)-isomer i ...
Asymmetric metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization has enjoyed great success as a powerful strategy for the rapid construction of elaborate structures from simple precursors. For example, aryl (pseudo)halides have been extensively employed as electrophilic s ...
Enamides and enol ethers are valuable building blocks in synthetic chemistry, yet their stereoselective synthesis can be challenging. Herein, we report a new stereoselective synthesis of vinyl, aryl, alkynyl, alkyl and thio-substituted Z-enamides and enol ...
Provided is a process for prepn. of asym. substituted biaryldiphosphine ligands I (R1 = C1-6-alkyl, C3-10-cycloalkyl optionally substituted with one or more halogen atoms; R2, R3 = aryl, C5-10-cycloalkyl, C1-6-alkyl, or R2 = C5-10-cycloalkyl, C1-6-alkyl; R ...
