Enantioselective Synthesis of cis-Decalins Using Organocatalysis and Sulfonyl Nazarov Reagents
Abstract
The first organocatalytic synthesis of cis-decalins using sulfonyl Nazarov reagents is reported. The Jørgensen’s catalyst directs this highly enantioselective synthesis using different cyclohexenal derivatives.
