Cu-Catalyzed Coupling of Aryl Halides Utilizing Ammonia and Hydroxypicolinamide Ligands
The hydroxypicolinamide family of ligands has previously demonstrated utility in Cu-catalyzed CâN couplings and hydroxylation of heteroaryl halides. The application of these ligands has been extended ...

Palladium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Stereodivergent Desymmetrization of Cyclic 1,4-Allyldiboronates
In the presence of a chiral palladium-based catalyst, 1,4-diboryl-2-alkenes undergo enantioselective cross-coupling that results in desymmetrization of the substrate structure. Depending on the reaction conditions and the choice of ligand, the reaction can occur with cis or trans selectivity, allowing the construction of an array of different substituted chiral carbocycles in an enantiomerically enriched fashion.
