Generation of azolium dienolates as versatile nucleophilic synthons via N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis

Jian Gao et al.

Summary: N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) organocatalysis with azolium dienolates as intermediates is a powerful tool for asymmetric synthesis. Four reactive azolium dienolates can be used as versatile nucleophilic synthons for efficient construction of complex skeletons. These intermediates have wide-ranging applications in asymmetric synthesis of enantioenriched molecules.

NHC-catalyzed covalent activation of heteroatoms for enantioselective reactions

Runjiang Song et al.

Summary: This review evaluates and summarizes the covalent activation of heteroatoms enabled by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) organic catalysts for enantioselective reactions. Sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms can be activated in this manner to construct chiral carbon-heteroatom bonds with high optical enantioselectivities. The key lies in the formation of intermediates covalently bound to the NHC catalyst, in which the heteroatom of the substrate is activated as a nucleophilic reactive site.
