Catalytic enantioselective synthesis of quaternary carbon stereocentres

TL;DR: The many catalytic enantioselective reactions developed during the past decade for the synthesis of single stereoisomers of such organic molecules make it possible to incorporate quaternary stereocentres selectively in many organic molecules that are useful in medicine, agriculture and potentially other areas such as flavouring, fragrances and materials.

Selective Carbon–Carbon Bond Cleavage for the Stereoselective Synthesis of Acyclic Systems

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that carbon-carbon bonds have the potential to be a general principle in organic synthesis for the regio-, diastereo-, and even enantioselective preparation of adducts despite the fact that C-C single bonds are among the least reactive functional groups.

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.

Catalytic asymmetric synthesis of all-carbon quaternary stereocenters

TL;DR: Only a few catalytic asymmetric C-C bond-forming reactions have been shown to be useful for constructing all-carbon quaternary stereocenters and this Perspective examines the current state of such methods.
