Recent Advances in the Catalytic Asymmetric Nitroaldol (Henry) Reaction

TL;DR: In this paper, an ambifunctional system based on La, Zn, Cu, Co and Mg metal species is described, together with some organocatalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent synthetic developments in the nitro to carbonyl conversion (Nef reaction)

TL;DR: The availability of a consistent number of such transformations for a particular functional group largely contributes to the success and development of related chemistry as discussed by the authors, which is the case of nitroalkanes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catalytic asymmetric Henry reaction

TL;DR: In this article, an asymmetric version of the classical Henry reaction has been developed to give a new dimension to the classical reaction whereby the control of stereochemistry of newly generated carbon centres has become possible.

The atom economy--a search for synthetic efficiency

TL;DR: Transition metal-catalyzed methods that are both selective and economical for formation of cyclic structures, of great interest for biological purposes, represent an important starting point for this long-term goal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atom Economy—A Challenge for Organic Synthesis: Homogeneous Catalysis Leads the Way

TL;DR: The ability of transition metal complexes to preorganize π-electron systems serves as the basis both of simple additions usually accompanied by subsequent hydrogen shifts and of cycloadditions as mentioned in this paper.

Asymmetric Catalysis with Heterobimetallic Compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the development of rare-earth-alkali metal complexes such as LnM3tris(binaphthoxide) complexes (LnMB, Ln = rare earth metal, M = alkali metal), which are readily prepared from corresponding rare earth trichlorides or rare earth isopropoxides, and their application to catalytic asymmetric synthesis.
