This tutorial review provides an overview of the recent history of the asymmetric organocatalysed Mannich reaction, including scope and limitations, and application of different catalyst systems.
Abstract
The asymmetric Mannich reaction ranks among the most potent enantioselective and diastereoselective C–C-bond forming reactions. In recent years, organocatalysed versions of asymmetric Mannich processes have been increasingly reported and used in a rapidly growing number of applications. This tutorial review provides an overview of the recent history of the asymmetric organocatalysed Mannich reaction, including scope and limitations, and application of different catalyst systems.

Catalytic Asymmetric Mannich Reactions of Sulfonylacetates

TL;DR: The possibility of using phase-transfer catalysis (PTC) for the mild deprotonation of arylsulfonylacetates 1 with the aim of exploring their enantioselective Mannich addition to highly reactive N-carbamoyl imines generated in situ from a-amidosulfones 2 is considered.

Greene's Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis

TL;DR: The role of protection groups in organic synthesis is discussed in this paper, where the authors present several general methods for phosphate Ester formation. But none of these methods are suitable for practical applications.

Chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed direct Mannich reactions via electrophilic activation.

TL;DR: It was found that the phosphoric acid derivatives of general structure 1 serve as highly effective catalysts for the direct addition of acetyl acetone to N-Boc-protected arylimines and functions as an excellent catalyst.
