CÀH oxidation reactions have the potential to significantly streamline synthetic processes. However, to be useful for the synthesis of complex molecules, these reactions must proceed with high levels of chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity. Chiral bisoxazoline/copper- catalyzed systems have shown promising levels of asymmetric induction in the enantioselective allylic CÀH esterification of symmetrical, cyclic olefins. Application of ...
