Asymmetric synthesis in a Norrish type II cleavage reaction induced by crystal chirality†
Abstract
Moderate to high enantiomeric excesses for the cis and trans olefinic products of a Norrish type II cleavage reaction have been obtained for the first time through the use of the solid-state ionic chiral auxiliary approach.
