title: Procedure-controlled enantioselectivity switch in organocatalytic 2-oxazolidinone synthesis.
abstract: In a novel organocatalytic formal [3 + 2] cycloaddition to afford chiral 2-oxazolidinones, an enantioselectivity switch could be induced by changing the manner of addition of the reactants, even when the reaction components (cinchona-alkaloid-derived aminothiourea catalyst, substrates, and solvent) were the same.
