Abstract

Over the past decade, the combination of chiral phosphoric acid and palladium catalysis has emerged as a robust strategy to accomplish the regio- and stereoselective functionalization of inactive C–H bonds, enabling access to various types of chirality (central, planar, and axial). This review article describes the origin and advances in the asymmetric functionalization of allylic C–H, C(sp2)–H, and C(sp3)–H bonds enabled by chiral phosphoric acid and palladium combined catalysis.
