Recent developments in enantioselective yttrium-catalyzed transformations

摘要: Abstract This review collects the major progress in field of enantioselective transformations promoted by chiral yttrium catalysts, covering literature since beginning 2007. It demonstrates that catalytic applications these special catalysts have seen last decade significant to become an emerging component asymmetric organic synthesis, particular through its recent impressive diversification outcomes. Therefore, various types highly efficient reactions been recently developed catalysis, among them hydroaminations, domino reactions, Michael additions, ring-opening epoxidations, Friedel−Crafts aldol and miscellaneous reactions.
