Investigation of Counterion Effects in an Organocatalyzed Iodolactonization and Discovery of an Organocatalyzed Iodolactonization to Give 7-Membered Lactones

Iodolactonization is a venerable chemical reaction with considerable utility in the synthesis of organic compounds. More recently, enantioselective methods reliant upon organocatalysts have been developed. This work details the investigation into a previously developed organocatalyst-mediated asymm...
