Abstract

Mixed acyloin skeletons are often found as the key structural motif for many natural products with interesting biological activities and synthetic therapeutics.(4) Despite the synthetic advantages of crossed acyloin condensations between two carbonyl compounds,(5) there are two drawbacks, the undesired self-condensations and the uncontrolled regiochemistry of crossed condensations. ... Given the importance of acetaldehdye as a simple nucleophile in ...
