Elucidating absolute configuration of unsaturated alcohols via enantioselective acylation reactions

Enantioselective nucleophilic acylation catalysis provides a simple method of determining absolute configuration for unsaturated alcohols. Extension of this technique to natural products and synthetic compounds, as well as current limitations of this approach, are also described.
