Description:
Organocatalytic atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral styrenes Nature Communications, Published online: 3 May 2017; doi:10.1038/ncomms15238 Many methods exist for the atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral biaryls, but axially chiral styrenes are much less explored. Here the authors report an organocatalytic procedure for the synthesis of configurationally stable, axially chiral styrenes with high enantio- and diastereoselectivities.
