Nazarov, I. N.; Torgov, I. B.; Terekhova, L. N. Bull. Acad. Sci. (USSR) 1942, 200. I. N. Nazarov (1900–1957), a Soviet Union Scientist, discovered this reaction in 1942. It was said that almost as many young synthetic chemists have been lost in the pursuit of an asymmetric Nazarov cyclization as of the Bayliss–Hillman reaction.
