This research aims to understand the mechanisms that lead to high reactivity and diastereoselectivity in spirocyclobutane synthesis using sulfur ylides and alkenes.
Conducted preliminary mechanistic studies.
Analyzed the reaction between activated alkenes and sulfur ylides.
Reactivity was found to be significantly high in the synthesized spirocyclobutanes.
Marked diastereoselectivity was observed during the synthesis, indicating potential control over product formation.
Abstract
fashion. Preliminary mechanistic studies allowed a better understanding of the origin of both the observed high reactivity and diastereoselectivity.
