The study of the asymmetric synthesis of lignans

The work in this thesis focuses on the asymmetric synthesis of lignans by approaches such as Diels-Alder reactions, asymmetric alkylation reactions, and intramolecular oxidative coupling reactions. In addition to developing asymmetric synthetic methodologies for chiral lignans, an investigation of c...
