Catalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of Inherently Chiral Macrocycles by Dynamic Kinetic Resolution

Kinetically fast racemization of chiral substrates through an achiral intermediate and enantioselective functionalization of one of the enantiomeric substrates forms the basis of the dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of centrally chiral molecules. We report ...
