Application

Wittig reagent used recently in the syntheses of functionalized pyrrolidines and cyclobutanones.
Reactant for:
  • Cascade reactions of enals for enantioselective synthesis of indane derivatives
  • Enantioselective conjugate addition for synthesis of α-branched indoles
  • Synthesis of 1,2-dioxanes with antitrypanosomal activity
  • Asymmetric allylboration for enantioselective synthesis of (+)-awajanomycin
  • Domino Suzuki / Heck coupling reactions for preparation of fluorenylidenes
  • Synthesis of amphibian pyrrolizidine alkaloids via allylic aminations
  • Synthesis of silicon-containing acyclic dienone musk odorants
