  • Racemic and Enantioselective Synthesis of Cavicularin

    Creator:
    Zhao, Peng
    Abstract:
    This dissertation describes the racemic and enantioselective synthesis cavicularin. Cavicularin is a macrocyclic bisbibenzyls family member natural product. It has been an attractive synthetic target due to its intriguing structure: the macrocyclic core imparts sufficient strain on the system to force one benzene rings to adopt a boat-shaped conformation, out...

  • Conformationally chiral diphenylethers and the enantioselective Ullmann etherification

    Creator:
    Salih, M. Quamar
    Abstract:
    Since the discovery of molecular chirality in 1848, this notion has had a substantial impact on medicine, biology, and chemistry. Extensive effort has been directed towards the construction of chiral molecules that contain sp³ hybridized stereogenic centers. In contrast, less effort has been dedicated to molecules that are chiral by...
