Privileged Chiral Catalysts

TL;DR: Drawing inspiration from natural catalysts, chemists have developed a variety of synthetic small-molecule catalysts that can achieve levels of selectivity approaching, and in some cases matching, those observed in enzymatic reactions.

Asymmetric ion-pairing catalysis.

TL;DR: This review describes developments in the burgeoning field of asymmetric ion-pairing catalysis with an emphasis on the insights that have been gleaned into the structural and mechanistic features that contribute to high asymmetric induction.

Recent advances in asymmetric phase-transfer catalysis.

TL;DR: This work has shown that the use of chiral nonracemic onium salts and crown ethers as effective phase-transfer catalysts provides a reliable and general strategy for the practical asymmetric synthesis of highly valuable organic compounds.
