Abstract:Dual palladium/photoredox-catalysis provides an
effective method for the asymmetric synthesis of vicinal a,b-tri/tetra-
or a,b-tetra-substituted
homoallylic alcohols. Regio- and enantioselective decarboxylative allylic
alkylation of vinyl cyclic carbonates is reported using Hantzsch type esters as
radical precursors. The developed methodology combines the use of versatile and
accessible reagents and can be operated under mild reaction conditions giving
the target molecules in appreciable to good yields, high b… Show more
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.
