New Concepts and Catalysts for Enantioselective Synthesis of C-C, C-Si, and C-B Bonds

Thesis advisor: Amir H. Hoveyda === Chapter 1. The development of chiral monodentate N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) is presented. Structurally varied twenty-eight new chiral imidazolinim salts, NHC precursors, were synthesized and characterized. Chapter 2. The first example of Cu-catalyzed enanti...
