Abstract

This review seeks to provide coverage on recent advances in catalytic enantioselective halofunctionalization of alkenes. The aim is to give an overview of various reports, highlighting the new reaction types and strategies developed during the past two years. The scope and challenges of intra- and intermolecular reaction variants are discussed as well.
