Towards the catalytic asymmetric bromination of alkenes

This thesis relates our efforts towards the development of a general method for the catalytic asymmetric bromination of alkenes. Previous work within the group had reported the synthesis and the use of 2,6-di-[(4R,5R)-4,5-diphenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2yl]-iodobenzene to catalyse the bromolactoni...
