All-carbon quaternary stereocenters are ubiquitous in natural products and significant in
drug molecules. However, construction of all-carbon stereocenters is a challenging project …

The desymmetrization of ten prochiral diols by phosphoryl transfer with a titanium-BINOLate
complex is discussed. The phosphorylation of nine 1, 3-propane diols is achieved in yields …

A catalytic methodology for the enantioselective addition of alkylzirconium reagents to
aliphatic aldehydes is reported here. The versatile and readily accessible chiral Ph-BINMOL …

This thesis focuses on the development of new methodologies for asymmetric synthesis.
Here, we will investigate two independent methodologies: i) biocatalysed synthesis of N …

Polyoxotitanates (POT) containing well-defined ratios of Ti atoms and dopant metals and/or
organic ligands are of great interest because they are potential precursors to form doped …
