Name: 2-(Benzyloxy)acetaldehydeIn 2021 ,《Asymmetric Synthesis of Homoallylic Alcohols Featuring Vicinal Tetrasubstituted Carbon Centers via Dual Pd/Photoredox Catalysis》 was published in Organic Letters. The article was written by Xue, Sijing; Limburg, Bart; Ghorai, Debasish; Benet-Buchholz, Jordi; Kleij, Arjan W.. The article contains the following contents:
Dual palladium/photoredox-catalysis provides an effective method for the decarboxylative asym. synthesis of vicinal α,β-tri/tetra- or α,β-tetrasubstituted homoallylic alcs. using Hantzsch-type esters as radical precursors. This mild methodol. capitalizes on vinyl cyclic carbonates as accessible reagents providing the target mols. in appreciable to good yields, high branch selectivity, and enantiomeric ratios of up to 94:6, making it a rare example of using prochiral electrophiles for the creation of vicinal congested carbon centers.

2-(Benzyloxy)acetaldehyde(cas: 60656-87-3) is a non-natural aldehyde. It undergoes enantioselective Mukaiyama aldol reaction with silylketene acetal nucleophiles in the presence of C2-symmetric bis(oxazolinyl)pyridine Cu(II) complex (catalyst).Name: 2-(Benzyloxy)acetaldehyde
