Osmium-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of dienes and their derivatives.
The development and application of novel methods for accomplishing the synthesis of heterocycles via osmium-catalyzed oxidative cyclization onto an alkene is described in this Perspective. Beginning with a fortuitous discovery, an extensive examination of the possible mechanism of cyclization has be...
