Alternative Synthetic Strategies for Enantioselective Construction of Halogenated Chiral Carbon Centers

This review focuses on the enantioselective synthesis of halogenated molecules having a chiral halocarbon center. In particular, this review discusses enantioselective transformations with haloalkenes and enantioselective α-substitutions of α-halo carbonyl compounds. Enantioselective halogen-transfer reactions are excluded from this review.
