Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric aminocatalysis--gold rush in organic chemistry.
TL;DR: This Review describes this "Asymmetric Aminocatalysis Gold Rush" and charts the milestones in its development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photochemical activity of a key donor–acceptor complex can drive stereoselective catalytic α-alkylation of aldehydes
TL;DR: It is shown that easily available chiral organic catalysts can guide both the stereoselectivity-defining events and, through the transient formation of photon-absorbing chiral electron donor–acceptor complexes, the photoactivation of the substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthetic Methods Driven by the Photoactivity of Electron Donor-Acceptor Complexes
TL;DR: Why this photochemical synthetic approach was overlooked for so long is explained and the historical context, scientific reasons, serendipitous observations, and landmark discoveries that were essential for progress in the field are critically discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanistic Studies in Photocatalysis
TL;DR: The discussion will use selected case studies to highlight how mechanistic investigations can be instrumental in guiding the invention and development of synthetically useful photocatalytic transformations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Die asymmetrische Aminokatalyse – Goldrausch in der organischen Chemie
TL;DR: The asymmetrischen Aminokatalyse with chiralen sekundaren Aminen (asymmetrischemie) is ein leistungsfahiges Verfahren zur chemo-and enantioselektiven Funktionalisierung von Carbonylverbindungen.
