I. Engaging Cationic Intermediates in Asymmetric Catalysis: Enantioselective Reactions of Carbenium Ions and N,N-Dialkyliminium Ions II. Enantioselective Catalysis of the Cope-Type Hydroamination by H-Bond Donors
The research described here explores the ability of dual H-bond donor catalysts to induce asymmetry in a variety of synthetically useful transformations that proceed via diverse reactive intermediates. In Chapters 1-3, we investigate ureas and thioureas as anion-binding catalysts for asymmetric rea...
