Abstract
Although central chirality based on stereogenic carbon atoms is arguably the most common chiral element in organic chemistry, chiral molecules devoid of stereogenic centers play important roles in stereoselective organic transformations. In spite of the usefulness of these chiral compounds with ‘non-centrochirality’ in asymmetric synthesis, enantiomerically enriched forms (scalemic forms) of these compounds are primarily obtained by rather classical methods. Examples of catalytic enantioselective induction of such non-centrochirality have been extremely rare and this is thus still a developing area in synthetic organic chemistry. In this review article, transition-metal-catalyzed enantioselective preparations of various non-centrochiral compounds, which include compounds with planar, axial, or helical chirality, are surveyed.
1 Introduction
2 Planar Chirality in Organometallic and Organic Compounds
3 Axial Chirality in Allenes
4 Atropisomeric Axial Chirality in Biaryls
5 Atropisomeric Axial Chirality about Carbon-Nitrogen or Carbon-Carbon Single Bonds in Nonbiaryl Systems
6 Axial Chirality in Spiro Compounds
7 Helical Chirality in ortho-Fused Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds
8 Conclusions
Key words
catalytic asymmetric synthesis - enantioselective reaction - transition-metal catalyst - homogeneous catalysis - non-centrochirality

In ref 25a, the absolute configuration of 58b was deduced to be R, but the compound was erroneously drawn as an S-isomer (personal communication with Prof. Tamio Hayashi).
