Translated abstract:
Part 1: Gold and platinum compounds were used as carbophilic Lewis-acids for the homogeneous catalytic activation of pi-systems. The reaction principle was employed in the development of novel cascade cyclization methods.
Part 2: The catalytic asymmetric Overman esterification was used as key reaction in an iterative sequence for the stereocontrolled synthesis of 1,3-polyol units. The method was applied in the total synthesis of (+)-Solistatin.
