Asymmetric Synthesis of Natural Products and Medicinal Drugs through One-Pot-Reaction Strategies

Abstract

One-pot synthesis has become an important subject of modern synthetic chemistry owing to its efficiency, versatility and expediency in constructing complicated polycyclic ring systems, especially with a sustainable and catalytic aspect. This review aims to highlight the recent advances in this area with specific emphasis on the asymmetric synthesis of natural products and related core structures as well as medicinal drugs via one-pot operation. 1 Introduction 2 Double Reactions 3 Triple Reactions 4 Quadruple Reactions 5 Pot-Economy Reactions 6 Conclusions
