Recent Advances in Catalytic Enantioselective Rearrangement

Among the fundamental chemical transformations in organic synthesis, rearrangement has been recognized as powerful and reliable reactions for the construction of carbon-carbon or carbon-heteroatom bonds. Benefiting from the advance of the novel catalytic system, catalyst design and activation mode, the chemistry of enantioselective rearrangements has experienced ever-growing development recently and has been successfully used in the synthesis of chiral non-racemic building blocks, natural products, and other valuable compounds. We present herein a survey of the recent development on the catalytic enantioselective rearrangement (from 2013 onward) organized according to the rearrangement type.
