Enantioselective acyl transfer catalysis by a combination of common catalytic motifs and electrostatic interactions

Nucleophilic catalysts are widely used for acyl transfer reactions, but chiral variants can be difficult to design or synthesise. Here, the authors report catalysts with chirality imparted from a binaphtyl moiety with tert-alcohol unit that show both high activity and enantioselectivity for a range...
