Symmetric organic compounds are generally obtained inexpensively, and therefore they can be attractive building blocks for the total synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and natural products. The drawback is that discriminating the identical functional groups in the symmetric compounds is difficult. Water is the most environmentally benign and inexpensive solvent. However, successful organic reactions in water are rather limited due to the hydrophobicity of organic compounds in general. Therefore, desymmetrization reactions in aqueous media are expected to offer versatile strategies for the synthesis of a variety of significant organic compounds. This review focuses on the recent progress of desymmetrization reactions of symmetric organic compounds in aqueous media without utilizing enzymes.

Baclofen is an antispastic drug used as a muscle relaxant in the treatment of the paroxysmal pain of trigeminal neuralgia, spasticity of the spinal cord and cerebral origin. Baclofen resides biological activity exclusively in its (R)-(–)-enantiomer. In this review, various asymmetric synthetic strategies for (R)-(–)-baclofen are described.1 Introduction2 Resolution Synthetic Approaches2.1 Chemical Resolution2.2 Biocatalytic Resolution3 Asymmetric Desymmetrization3.1 Catalytic Enantioselective Desymmetrization3.2 Enzymatic Desymmetrization4 Chiral Auxiliary Induced Asymmetric Synthesis4.1 Asymmetric Michael Addition4.2 Asymmetric Aldol Addition4.3 Asymmetric Nucleophilic Substitution5 Asymmetric Reduction5.1 Catalytic Asymmetric Hydrogenation5.2 Bioreduction6 Catalytic Asymmetric Conjugate Addition7 Conclusion
