A divergent enantioselective approach to hapalindole-type alkaloids featuring a ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation and a switchable sequence of methylation and acetylation/aldol reaction is described.
A protocol for the highly efficient iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of racemic α-substituted lactones via dynamic kinetic resolution is described.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations –citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
