Bifunctional Lewis acids for the activation of organic carbonyls /

The double activation of ketones and aldehydes by bidentate Lewis acids is attracting considerable interest. It has often been proposed that the unusual activity of bifunctional Lewis acid catalysts in reactions involving organic carbonyls results from their ability to chelate the carbonyl oxygen a...
