Transforming terpene-derived aldehydes into 1,2-epoxides via asymmetric α-chlorination: subsequent epoxide opening with carbon nucleophiles

Abstract

Merging Jørgensen's and MacMillan's organocatalytic aldehyde chlorinations enables the synthesis of chiral vinylcyclopropanes and (−)-cis-aerangis lactoneviaterpene-derived 1,2-epoxides.
