Synthetic strategies through superelectrophilic activation in superacid

Superelectrophilic activation driven strategies aim at exploring new chemical space. In superacid conditions, through the capacity to generate polycationic species from functionalizedorganic substrates, new reactions having no equivalent in the current synthetic arsenal are proposed, going from molecular reorganization to the synthesis of enantioenriched product. The final exploitation of these strategies in a late-stage modification approach of elaborated molecules also demonstrates their synthetic potential, as an original alternative to standard methods.
