I. Development of Nickel- and Palladium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Allylic Alkylation Reactions. II. Enantioselective Syntheses of Tetrahydroisoquinoline–Based Natural Products and Unnatural Analogs
<p> Described in this thesis are four projects related to the development of synthetic methodologies for the preparation of enantioenriched building blocks, and the total syntheses of complex tetrahydroisoquinoline natural products. In Chapter 1, the development of nickel-catalyzed asymmetric...
