Stereoselective synthesis has been emerging as a resourceful tool because it enables the
obtaining of compounds with biological interest and high enantiomeric purity. Flavonoids are …

Herein, we developed an enantioselective addition of aliphatic aldehydes to 2-
hydroxychalcone promoted by cooperative organocatalysts, giving access to hybrid …

Herein is reported the direct asymmetric addition of phenol nucleophiles to benzopyrylium
salts as a means to produce enantioenriched flavonoid-like compounds. This …

The contribution of chiral sulfoxides as versatile auxiliaries in the field of organic chemistry
has shown a prevalent interest in the asymmetric synthesis of natural products during the …

Chiral chalcone epoxides exhibiting the oxygenation patterns of naturally occurring
flavonoids and isoflavonoids were transformed into the corresponding α …

Asymmetric hydrogenation (AH) and asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) are versatile
synthetic methodologies widely employed in the preparation of chiral compounds. In this …

The aldehyde is arguably the most versatile carbonyl functionality. Furthermore, it is more
active than any other carbonyl functionality toward a plethora of nucleophilic reactions. This …

The asymmetric cyclization of 2′‐hydroxychalcones to flavanones is a basic, enzyme‐
catalyzed step in the biosynthesis of flavonoid natural products, but poses a long‐standing …

In the last decade, organocatalysis, the use of small chiral organic molecules as catalysts,
has proven to be a valuable and attractive tool for the synthesis of enantiomerically enriched …

A concise and highly enantioselective synthesis of the flavonoids brosimine A, brosimine B,
and brosimacutin L is reported for the first time. The key transformation is a single‐step …
