This review provides a brief summary of the development of transition metal catalyzed asymmetric hydrocarboxylation, hydroesterification, and hydroamidation of olefins with CO and its surrogates.
A Pd-catalyzed asymmetric hydroesterification of enimides with phenyl formate is described. A DIOP-based system has been found to be highly active catalyst, giving the corresponding β-amino esters with up to...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
