Recent advances in rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric synthesis of heterocycles.
Heterocycles are crucial structural motifs that are ubiquitously present in biologically active natural products and pharmaceutically important compounds. Over the past few decades, great attention has been paid to develop efficient methodologies for the construction of diverse enantioenriched heterocyclic frameworks. This review focuses on the recent impressive progress and advances in the asymmetric synthesis of heterocycles under rhodium catalysis.
