Chiral Carbocations as Lewis Acid Catalysts in Diels-Alder Reactions

Lewis acids can be used as catalysts in different reactions, but the term Lewis acid catalysts often refers to metal salts. Metal complexes have been widely used for asymmetric catalysis. Asymmetric synthesis can however be performed in a metal-free way by using organocatalysis. New Lewis acid catal...
