Planar Chiral Organosulfur Cycles
Newly synthesized 9-membered diallylic organosulfur cycles have proven to possess planar chirality originating from the rigidity of their medium-sized cyclic structure. The oxidation state of the sulfur atom significantly influences their stereochemical behavior as well as their reactivity.
