This review summarizes the advances in metal-catalyzed asymmetric reactions enabled by organic peroxides that have been found to exhibit multifunctionalities, for instance, applied as stoichiometric reactants, stoichiometric reagents, or catalytic amount reagents.
This review summarizes a view of the advances in the catalytic asymmetric α-functionalization of vinylogous nucleophilic species, the content of which is categorized based on the type of vinylogous donor.
Purine derivatives of Me-TaNA (methylated three-acetal-containing nucleic acid) were synthesized and incorporated into oligonucleotides. The modified oligonucleotides exhibited high duplex stability with single-stranded RNA.
Chiral diphenylprolinol silyl ethers have been successfully identified for the enantioselective allenation reaction of terminal alkynes and 2-alkynals, delivering a diverse set of chiral allenynes with high efficiency.
Highly substituted trans-hydrindanes were synthesized by the three-component coupling reactions of 1,3-diethyl 2-(2-oxopropylidene)propanedioate and two different α,β-unsaturated aldehydes catalyzed by diphenylprolinol silyl ether.
