Single-Step Metallocatalyzed and Organocatalyzed Enantioselective Construction of Bicyclo[3.2.1]octanes
Résumé
Pushing the dominos after 100 years: Almost a century has elapsed since the pioneer one-pot preparation of a racemic functionalized bicyclo[3.2.1]octane nucleus in 1903, and their first metal-catalyzed direct enantioselective synthesis from achiral precursors in 1999. Both metallic and organic catalytic domino transformations are pivotal developments in the direct construction of functionalized bicyclo[3.2.1]octanes from simple achiral precursors.
