Abstract
Desymmetrization of a symmetrical molecule to yield an enantiomerically enriched product is certainly a topic of current interest. One area where examples of desymmetrization reactions are scarce is the catalytic enantioselective construction of C−C bonds. 1 The enantioselective desymmetrization of achiral meso-epoxides is an attractive way of creating new stereogenic centers. 2 While there are several examples of desymmetrization of meso-epoxides by ...
