Abstract

Wring it out: The title reaction proceeds in the presence of chiral Brønsted acid catalysts. This efficient ring-opening process features low catalyst loading, mild reaction conditions, broad functional group compatibility, high enantioselectivity, and the capability to generate chiral quaternary centers. The highly functionalized desymmetrization products are versatile chiral building blocks in organic synthesis.
