Abstract
From 2 to 1! Racemic tertiary halooxindoles proceed to enantioenriched oxindoles bearing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters as a result of a catalytic enantioselective stereoablative process (see scheme). The application of this procedure allows for the rapid asymmetric construction of biologically significant alkaloid core motifs.

Catalytic enantioconvergent coupling of secondary and tertiary electrophiles with olefins

TL;DR: Nickel-catalysed coupling of racemic alkyl electrophiles and olefins in the presence of a hydrosilane is achieved with good enantioselectivity and yield under very mild reaction conditions, which opens the door to developing more general methods for enantioconvergentAlkyl–alkyl coupling.

Catalytic enantioselective construction of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters

Barry M. Trost, +1 more
- 01 Feb 2006 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive account of the currently available methods of the above transformation that afford high enantioselectivities and synthetically useful yields is given. But this review is limited to all-carbon quaternary stereocenters, i.e. carbon atoms bearing four different carbon substituents.
