Chiral Selenide-Catalyzed Enantioselective Construction of Saturated Trifluoromethylthiolated Azaheterocycles
Congratulations! The publication of our group in Org. Lett., "Chiral Selenide-Catalyzed Enantioselective Construction of Saturated Trifluoromethylthiolated Azaheterocycles" has been published recently (Jie Luo, Yannan Liu, and Xiaodan Zhao* Org. Lett. 2017, 19, 3434–3437).
An indane-based, bifunctional, chiral selenide catalyst has been developed. The new catalyst is efficient for the enantioselective synthesis of saturated azaheterocycles possessing a trifluoromethylthio group. The desired products were obtained in good yields with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities.
