Technical Notes:
1. Reagent used in the highly enantio- and diastereoselective, catalytic intramolecular Stetter reaction.
2. Enantioselective synthesis of ?-hydroxy and ?-amino esters.
3.Organocatalytic iminium ion/carbene reaction cascade for the formation of 2,4-disubstituted cyclopentenones .
4. Synthesis of allo- and epi-lnositol via the NHC-catalyzed carbocyclization of carbohydrate-derived dialdehydes.
