Prof. Dr. Norbert Krause's Paper Hits Top of ISI® Ratings

Prof. Dr. Norbert Krause's article "Recent Advances in Catalytic Enantioselective Michael Additions", which appeared in SYNTHESIS issue 2, 2001, hit the ISI® list for "New Hot Papers" in the field of chemistry in November. Hot papers are selected by virtue of being cited among the top one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) in a bimonthly period.

"The paper is the most recent and comprehensive review on enantioselective Michael addition reactions carried out with catalytic amounts of both a transition metal and a chiral ligand. The method is used by many research groups for the stereoselective synthesis of chiral target molecules, in particular natural products and pharmaceutically active compounds. The unique feature of our review is that it covers all important transition metals (copper, nickel, rhodium, lanthanides, etc.) and even pure "organocatalytic" (metal-free) reactions, so that it appeals to many more researchers than other reviews which are specialized to only one metal."
