Description:
Article Sulphur ylides are useful reagents in organic synthesis, typically reacting with highly polar reagents. Here, the authors show a catalytic asymmetric process for the addition of sulphur ylides to cyclic allylic esters with loss of CO 2 , giving access to chiral, highly functionalised indolines.
