The Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction’s widespread application is the introduction of up to four new contiguous asymmetric centers with good yields, high selectivity and predictability. 65 references were cited to review the recent developments in asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction, including the mechanism, the new catalysts and ligands, and the new applications. |
