Abstract

Sulfur-containing tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters are widely present in natural products, drugs, and biologically active compounds. Catalytic enantioselective construction of such fully substituted carbon stereocenters is a current research interest, with four major synthetic strategies being developed. This review summarizes the advances in this field, discusses in detail the advantages and limitation of each synthetic strategy, and outlines the synthetic opportunities still open for development.
