69. 1H resonances by 2D NMR spectroscopic studies (COSY, HSQC, HMBC), the stereochemistry of the new quaternary stereocenter was unequivocally determined by a series of selective 1D gradient-enhanced NOE interaction experiments (ge-1D NOESY).
70. The formation of quaternary centers in an asymmetric manner possesses a particular challenge for organic synthesis because of steric repulsion between the carbon substituents in the product and the difficulty in achieving good stereocontrol; for recent selected reviews, see
