Asymmetric synthesis by enantiomer-selective activation of racemic catalysts
- K. Mikami, Satoru Matsukawa
- Chemistry
- Nature
- 1 February 1997
Asymmetric catalysis of organic reactions to provide enantiomerically enriched products is of central importance to modern synthetic and pharmaceutical chemistry1–3. While non-racemic catalysts can… Expand

- 27 March 2003
[reaction: see text] Mechanistic studies of one-electron reduction in water using samarium were carried out. Unexpected disproportionation in water was observed via UV-vis spectroscopic analysis.… Expand
Distribution of herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 genomes in human spinal ganglia studied by PCR and in situ hybridization
- Y. Obara, Y. Furuta, +7 authors K. Nagashima
- Biology
- 1 June 1997
Clinical data indicate that the recurring herpes simplex virus (HSV) from oro‐labial lesions is HSV subtype 1 and that the virus from genital lesions is HSV‐2. This suggests that HSV‐1 and HSV‐2… Expand
Highly selective one-pot synthesis of spirophosphoranes exhibiting reversed apicophilicity by oxidation of dianions generated from P-H spirophosphorane.

- Chemistry, Medicine
- Organic letters
- 18 May 2001
[see reaction]. Mild and highly selective one-pot procedures for obtaining phosphoranes that exhibit reversed (O-cis) apicophilicity are described. On the basis of the procedures, O-cis phosphorane… Expand
TTMPP-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of carbonyl compounds and imines with trifluoromethylsilane
- Satoru Matsukawa, Marina Saijo
- Chemistry
- 28 July 2008
A highly basic phosphine, tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)phosphine (TTMPP), catalyzes trifluoromethylation using trifluoromethyltrimethylsilane to give the corresponding trifluoromethylated products in… Expand
Importance of chiral activators in the asymmetric catalysis of Diels-Alder reactions by chiral titanium(IV) complexes
- Satoru Matsukawa, K. Mikami
- Chemistry
- 27 March 1997
Abstract Asymmetric activation of chiral titanium(IV) complexes is found to be essential to provide higher levels of enantioselectivity than that attained by enantiopure catalysts in Diels-Alder… Expand
Regioselective allylation reactions using crotyl Grignard reagent–CeCl3 systems
- Satoru Matsukawa, Y. Funabashi, T. Imamoto
- Chemistry
- 27 January 2003
Abstract Regioselective allylation reactions using crotyl Grignard reagent–CeCl 3 systems are described. Regioselectivity depends on the lanthanide salts: α-product was predominantly produced with… Expand
