Abstract

Despite the wide applicability of enantioselective Bronsted acid catalysis, experimental insight into transition states is Very rare, and most of the mechanistic knowledge is gained by theoretical calculations. Here, we present an alternative approach (decrypting transition state by light = DTS-hv), which enables the decryption of the transition states involved in chiral phosphoric acids ...
