报告内容简介：
Halogenation is an important class of organic transformation. Over the pass decades, reactions including cohalogenation, haloetherification, halolactonization and polyene cyclization are well documented. These reactions have been applied in many natural products and drug molecules synthesis. One of the research focuses in our research group is on the development of novel bromination reactions using N-bromosuccinimide (NBS), an easy handle and inexpensive halogen source. In this lecture, our recent progress in the development of asymmetric and highly diastereoselective bromination reactions will be presented.
