New Frontiers in Asymmetric Organocatalysis - Fabrizio Vetica is Guest Editor

Friday, 15 January, 2021

Dear Colleagues,

The synthesis of enantioenriched organic molecules plays a pivotal role in organic chemistry, having essential applications in the preparation of pharmaceutically relevant compounds. Indeed, enantiomers of bioactive compounds often possess very different pharmacological effects, and thus, the synthesis of enantiopure drugs and/or their intermediates remains a central topic for synthetic organic chemists.

The aim of this Special Issue is to advance the knowledge on organocatalytic methodologies for the asymmetric synthesis of enantioenriched organic compounds, involving also synergistic/cooperative catalysis and domino/one-pot reaction sequences. Moreover, studies on the use of organocatalytic methodologies in the total synthesis of potentially bioactive compounds are of interest.

As Guest Editors it is our pleasure to invite you to contribute research and review articles on asymmetric organocatalysis to this Special Issue.
