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

Enantioselective α-Etherification of Branched Aldehydes via an Oxidative Umpolung Strategy

TL;DR: In this paper, an aminocatalytic umpolung concept that allows for the asymmetric construction of tertiary ethers in the α-position of aldehydes was proposed.

Asymmetric synthesis of (−)-epi-blastmycinone and (2R,3S,4S)-3-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-(1′-n-tetradecyl)-butanolide via a tungsten-mediated cyclization reaction

TL;DR: In this article, a tungsten-mediated cyclization was used to achieve an anti-constrained synthesis of the natural lactones 1 and 2 using six or seven steps from readily available 1-trimethylsilyl-pent-1-yne.

Nonracemic γ-Lactones from the Sharpless Asymmetric Dihydroxylation of β,γ-Unsaturated Carboxylic Esters

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on Sharpless' asymmetric dihydroxylation of C=C double bonds of β,γ-unsaturated carboxylic esters and show that this SAD route represents a potent easy-to-handle route to nonracemic butanolides and butenolides.

Asymmetric dihydroxylation in an approach to the enantioselective synthesis of 2-arylpropanoic acid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduced asymmetry into the molecules by Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation of the appropriate methyl styrenes, and the resultant diols were then converted into optically active epoxides and the required stereogenic center was assembled by catalytic hydrogenolysis of the introduced benzylic epoxide oxygen bond, followed by oxidation of the derived Optically active primary alcohol.

Chiral polymers via asymmetric epoxidation and asymmetric dihydroxylation

TL;DR: Asymmetric epoxidation and dihydroxylation performed on suitably substituted styrene-divinylbenzene polymers yielded products which in some cases were difficult to analyze accurately as mentioned in this paper.

First practical method for asymmetric epoxidation

TL;DR: In this article, a metal alkoxide is used as a catalyst, where the metal has a coordination number of at least four, and at least one, usually two, of the alkoxide groups bonded to the metal are bonded to asymmetric carbon atoms.
