Chiral hypervalent iodine mediated enantioselective oxidative dearomatization of naphthols

This dissertation investigates and describes the hypervalent iodine mediated dearomatization of naphthols, thereby yielding diversity of spiro-heterocyclic compounds in both racemic and chiral form. The first part of this thesis discloses the synthesis of racemic spiropyrrolidines and spirolactams...
