Research Abstract |
Based on acid-base combination chemistry, we conducted the rational design of high performance catalysts with functionalities such as weak secondary interaction and acid-base dual activation. Using these catalysts, we developed highly selective synthetic processes. For example, we achieved dehydrative ester condensation in water using organoammonium catalysts, enantioselective carbon-carbon bond forming reactions (Diels-Alder reaction, polyene cyclization and iodolactonization of unsaturated carboxylic acids) and acylation reaction based on acid-base combination catalysis (cyanoethoxycarbonylation of isatins and dehydrative amide condensation of alpha-hydroxy carboxylic acids).
