Lewis Base Catalysis in Organic Synthesis

TL;DR: It has become increasingly apparent that the behavior of Lewis bases as agents for promoting chemical reactions is not merely as an electronic complement of the cognate Lewis acids: in fact Lewis bases are capable of enhancing both the electrophilic and nucleophilic character of molecules to which they are bound.

Catalytic Asymmetric Organozinc Additions to Carbonyl Compounds

TL;DR: These studies on macromolecular chiral catalysts demonstrate that these materials are potentially very useful for practical applications and can also be preserved in the rigid and sterically regular polymer provided the catalytically active species of the monomer catalyst is not its aggregate.
