Abstract
Independent Chiral Catalysts
Synthetic catalysts can be prepared in their mirror-image form and thereby furnish the mirror-image (enantiomer) of the reaction product. In practice, however, this versatility is largely limited to products featuring a single stereocenter that accounts for the dissymmetry.
Krautwald
et al.
(p.
1065
; see the Perspective by
Schindler and Jacobsen
) now report a pair of chiral catalysts—an iridium complex and an amine—that operate in concert to facilitate carbon-carbon bond formation, while retaining independent stereoselectivity toward their respective sides of the bond.
