Studies into iridium-catalysed asymmetric allylic alkylation towards the total synthesis of a dolabellane

<p>In recent years, iridium-catalysed asymmetric allylic substitution has received considerable attention because it is a valuable tool to selectively synthesise chiral compounds with high ee from simple starting materials. This thesis presents an efficient catalytic system for the decarboxyla...
