From the design of a chiral Lewis acid catalyst to metal-catalyzed coupling reactions

J Org Chem. 2004 May 14;69(10):3245-9. doi: 10.1021/jo049908o.

Abstract

In this perspective, I describe my group's nonobvious path from an interest in chiral Lewis acid catalysis to a project focused on the development of new palladium and nickel catalysts for carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions.
