Coordination chemistry and applications of metal phenolates containing an oxazoline group

Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>This review details the coordination chemistry aspects, applications, and catalytic relevance of materials containing a phenol unit appended to an oxazoline ring. The latter functionality can be chiral or achiral in nature. The binding motifs and catalytic potency of these materials in carbon-carbon bond forming processes and related reactions are compared and contrasted.</jats:p>
