Photoredox/Cr-catalyzed enantioselective radical-polar crossover transformation via C-H functionalization by Si-Yuan Tang, Zhan-Jie Wang, Yu Ao, Ning Wang, Huan-Ming Huang

“…The asymmetric radical-polar crossover transformation could build two chiral centers simultaneously and demonstrates broad substrate tolerance, accommodating various drug-derived aldehydes, (hetero)aromatics, and 1,3-diene derivatives. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicate the involvement of a radical intermediate, with the chiral allylic chromium species reacting with various aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes through Zimmerman–Traxler transition states enabled by dual photoredox and chiral chromium catalysis.…”
