New Catalytic Enantioselective Functionalizations of Alcohols through Silylation and Tosylation

Thesis advisor: Marc L. Snapper === A survey of silicon-based reactions and potential for Lewis base catalysis was presented. An efficient site- and enantioselective catalytic silylation of triols is disclosed. The protocol is applied to total syntheses of cleroindicins D, F and C. Catalytic kineti...
