Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective C–H functionalization has emerged as a powerful tool for the synthesis of enantioenriched compounds in chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Sulfur-based functionalities are ubiquitous in many of the biologically active compounds, medicinal agents, functional materials, chiral auxiliaries and ligands. This perspective highlights recent advances in sulfur functional group enabled transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective C–H functionalization for the construction of sulfur stereogenic centers, as well as the utilization of chiral sulfoxides to realize stereoselective C–H functionalization.
This perspective highlights sulfur functional groups enabled enantioselective C–H functionalization for the construction of sulfur stereogenic centers, and the utilization of chiral sulfoxide to realize stereoselective C–H functionalization.![]()
