Abstract

ortho-Quinone methides have emerged recently as useful electrophiles in metal-free catalysis. New strategies to access these species in situ that are compatible with simultaneous nucleophile generation have provided a suite of innovative and selective transformations accessing heterocycles for use in organic synthesis.
