Chiral BINOL as powerful Bronsted acid catalyst-Cover of OBC Issue 23

Svetlana B Tsogoeva and colleagues at University of Erlagen-Nuremberg review the recent advances on the most successful C-C formation reactions using chiral BINOL phosphates as Bronsted acid catalysts.

Read this review, which is free to access until the end of the year, to find out more about these very popular Bronsted acid catalysts.
