Difluorinated Alkyl Bromide Synthesis via Chiral Iodoarene Catalysis


Listen Later

In this episode we discuss a report from the Jacobsen lab on an enantioselective synthesis of difluorinated alkyl bromides catalyzed by a chiral iodoarene. Linear free energy relationships between experimental enantioselectivities and computed catalyst parameters helped elucidate the origins of enantioselectivity.
