Enantioselective Synthesis of Cyclic Secondary Amines through Mo-Catalyzed Asymmetric Ring-Closing Metathesis (ARCM)
(Equation Presented) Carboyclic amines are synthesized efficiently in up to 93% ee by asymmetric ring-closing metathesis (ARCM) with 2-5 mol % chiral Mo complexes. An example is provided where the catalyst is prepared in situ (catalyst isolation not neede
