Journal ArticleDOI
Copper‐Catalyzed Asymmetric Allylic Alkylation
TL;DR: In this paper, a review traces the evolution of the methodologies for creating stereogenic centers through asymmetric copper-catalyzed allylic alkylation with the use of different organometallic reagents and their subsequent applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
SimplePhos monodentate ligands: synthesis and application in copper-catalyzed reactions.
Laetitia Palais,Igor S. Mikhel,Chloée Bournaud,Laurent Micouin,Caroline A. Falciola,Magali Vuagnoux-d'Augustin,Stephane Rosset,Gérald Bernardinelli,Alexandre Alexakis +8 more
TL;DR: Ligands termed SimplePhos (L*), based on a chiral amino and flexible aryl groups on the phosphorus atom, induce high enantioselectivity in the copper-catalyzed conjugate addition and allylic substitution of dialkyl zinc and trialkyl aluminum reagents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enantioselective Iridium‐Catalyzed Allylic Arylation
Damien Polet,Xavier Rathgeb,Caroline A. Falciola,Jean-Baptiste Langlois,Samir El Hajjaji,Alexandre Alexakis +5 more
TL;DR: The development of the first iridium-catalyzed allylic substitution using arylzinc nucleophiles is described, which used commercially available Grignard reagents as the starting materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
β-Disubstituted Allylic Chlorides: Substrates for the Cu-Catalyzed Asymmetric SN2′ Reaction
TL;DR: Two classes of -disubstituted substrates, cinnamyl derivatives and aliphatic endocyclic allylic chlorides, afford excellent regio- and enantioselectivities (see schemes).
Journal ArticleDOI
The copper-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution
Alexandre Alexakis,Christophe Malan,Louise Lea,Karine Tissot-Croset,Damien Polet,Caroline A. Falciola +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a mini-review discusses the rapidly growing field of asymmetric copper-catalyzed chemistry, with emphasis on the organo-metallic and the type of chiral ligand used.
