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

Preparation of 2(R) and 2(S) methyl-2-methylglycerates

TL;DR: In this article, both enantiomers of methyl 2,3-dihydroxy-2-methylpropanoate were prepared by a chromatographic separation of their (−)-menthyl esters followed by hydrolysis and methylation.

Heteroatom-Directed Acylation of Secondary Alcohols To Assign Absolute Configuration.

TL;DR: The enantioselective acylation has now been extended to secondary alcohols bearing electron-withdrawing groups such as halides and other heteroatoms and was used to confirm the configuration of two inoterpene natural products.

Asymmetric dihydroxylation of vinyl- and allyl-silanes

TL;DR: In this article, Sharpless AD-mix-α and β-reagents were used for dihydroxylation of allyl-and vinyl-silanes, and the chemical yields were typically 80% or more, but the enantiomeric excesses are critically dependent on the structure of the alkene.

Stereoselective synthesis of brassinosteroids

TL;DR: The brassinolide remains the main prize of synthetic endeavors and is considerably more difficult to prepare because the most readily available starting material would require the difficult operation of degrading C-28 from the side chain, or inverting the configuration of C-24, respectively.

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.
