Photoinduced β-fragmentation of aliphatic alcohol derivatives for forging C–C bonds

Transformations of alcohols, which are ubiquitous in chemistry and are native functionalities in many natural products and bioactive molecules, are cornerstones of organic synthesis. Here the authors describe photocatalyzed cross-couplings of activated alcohols with α-amino acids, providing a direct...

description Transformations of alcohols, which are ubiquitous in chemistry and are native functionalities in many natural products and bioactive molecules, are cornerstones of organic synthesis. Here the authors describe photocatalyzed cross-couplings of activated alcohols with α-amino acids, providing a direct approach for a variety of unnatural amino acids.
