Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The effect of the counter-anion on enantio-control in oxidative NHC catalysis is demonstrated systematically for the first time. For kinetic resolution of oxindole-derived tertiary alcohols through NHC-catalyzed esterification, the identity of anions, either in the form of an additive or as the counter-anion in the azolium pre-catalyst, showed a significant effect on the enantioselectivity of the catalytic system. With the suitable choice of anions, highly efficient kinetic resolution (with k between 30 and >200) was achieved for a wide range of oxindole-derived tertiary alcohols bearing alkyl, aryl and functionalized substituents. The anion effect on other oxidative NHC-catalyzed processes such as formal cycloaddition is also demonstrated.
