Versatile and Environmentally Friendly New Reaction Methodologies for Synthetic Organic Chemistry with Application to Natural Product Synthesis.
Enantioselective catalysis is the most important frontier of synthetic organic chemistry today. As nature uses enzymes to catalyze highly stereoselective reactions, it was long assumed that large and complex structures are essential to attain high enantioselectivity.
