Axial chirality1 was predicted by van't Hoff in his historical paper, 1, 2 which laid the
foundations of stereochemistry. 3 BINOL (1), one of the best known representatives of axially …

While natural and synthetic N-nucleosides are vulnerable to enzymatic and acid-catalyzed
hydrolysis of the nucleosidic bond, their C-analogues are much more stable. Several C …

The ion-pair concept1-4 was introduced in 1926 by Bjerrum5 to account for the behavior of
ionophores (species, such as alkali halides, that are ionic in the crystalline state and exist as …

Carbenes are neutral compounds featuring a divalent carbon atom. Their rich reactivity both
as naked species and within complexes of transition metals has allowed for spectacular …

A catalyst system for the preparation of biaryls containing four ortho substituents via Suzuki
coupling is described. The combination of a catalytic quantity of Pd2 (dba) 3 with either an …

In this review, an attempt is made to systemise the rôle which bidentate phosphinamine (P,
N) ligands play in asymmetric catalysis. The ligands will be classified, not by the reaction to …

A new catalyst system for the enantioselective α-arylation of ketones is reported. This
catalyst, prepared from Pd2 (dba) 3 and a bulky dialkylphosphino-binaphthyl ligand, is able …

Ir-Catalysed allylic substitution is supplementing the traditional Pd-catalysed variant. With
simple, easily available monosubstituted allylic acetates and carbonates as substrates, Ir …

Recent advances in the use of non-enzymatic chiral catalysts for the kinetic resolution or
dynamic kinetic resolution of racemic substrates are described. Successful protocols that …
