Predicted Reaction Discovery and Application of Catalytic Asymmetric Alkene Halogenations
Description: PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Transformation of carbon-carbon double bonds into other functional groups in an enantioselective manner has been enabling for the tremendous progress of synthetic organic chemistry, yet the halofunctionalization of olefins in a stereoselective manner remains largely untapped. This program will build upon our recent success in this area to develop new methodologies and synthesize complex natural products through enantioselective halogenation of double bonds.
