New ligands double the scope of the catalytic asymmetric dihydroxylation of olefins

TLDR
Improved ligands render terminal olefins good substrates for the osmium-catalyzed asymmetric dihydroxylation (ADH) process as discussed by the authors.
Abstract
Improved ligands render terminal olefins good substrates for the osmium-catalyzed asymmetric dihydroxylation (ADH) process, and the amounts of chiral ligand and osmium catalyst required diminish dramatically
