Generation and exploitation of acyclic azomethine imines in chiral Brønsted acid catalysis
TL;DR: Acyclic azomethine imines would be useful prochiral electrophiles in catalytic asymmetric reactions, but their generation often requires harsh conditions, so they are generated under mild conditions in the presence of an axially chiral dicarboxylic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed asymmetric trisubstituted aziridine synthesis using α-diazoacyl oxazolidinones.
TL;DR: Chiral N-triflyl phosphoramide-catalyzed reactions of N-α-diazoacyl oxazolidinones and N-Boc imines were developed as a solution to the unmet challenge of stereoselective synthesis of trisubstituted aziridines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organocatalyzed direct asymmetric α-halogenation of carbonyl compounds
TL;DR: The formation of carbon-halogen bonds in an enantioselective manner is an important reaction because it leads to optically active halogen compounds, which are useful intermediates for further elaboration to other valuable compounds.
