Article Title: Creating quaternary centers with high exo stereoselectivity using activated α-alkynyl dienophiles
Abstract: Ethynyl substituents were used to direct a highly exoselective creation of quaternary carbon centers in Diels-Alder cycloaddition reactions involving activated α-alkynyl dienophiles. The origins of electronic activation and the high stereoselectivities of these reactions were investigated by the B3LYP density functional method. Copyright © 2007 American Chemical Society.
