Constructing chiral bicyclo[3.2.1]octanes via palladium-catalyzed asymmetric tandem Heck/carbonylation desymmetrization of cyclopentenes

Tandem Heck/carbonylation reaction gives access to ubiquitous carbonyl molecules, however the asymmetric version is rarely studied. Here, the authors synthesize chiral bicyclo[3.2.1]octanes with a palladium-catalyzed asymmetric tandem Heck/carbonylation desymmetrization of cyclopentenes with alcohol...

Description
Summary:Tandem Heck/carbonylation reaction gives access to ubiquitous carbonyl molecules, however the asymmetric version is rarely studied. Here, the authors synthesize chiral bicyclo[3.2.1]octanes with a palladium-catalyzed asymmetric tandem Heck/carbonylation desymmetrization of cyclopentenes with alcohols, phenols and amines.
