Note:
1.1.1: The objective of this research project is to develop practical and efficient enantioselective isomerization reactions of alkenols, alkenyl arenes, alkenyl carbonyl compounds, alkenyl boronates, and exocyclic alkenes. Notably, this approach boasts unique advantages compared to classical approaches: swift construction of tertiary carbon centers, flexible chain length between the newly created chiral center and the functional group, and straightforward convertibility of the resulted double bond moiety to a variety of functionalities, and thus will allow for the design of a myriad of unconventional strategies towards desirable chiral organic molecules.
