Abstract :
Recent advances in enantioselective catalysis with chiral Brønsted acids and Brønsted bases are reviewed. These catalysts are capable of highly enantioselective amination, aza-Henry, conjugate addition,Friedel-Crafts alkylation, Mannich, and Morita-Baylis-Hillman reactions
Keywords :
Amination , aza , Henry reaction , Brønsted acids , Brønsted bases , conjugate addition , Mannich reaction , Morita , Baylis , Hillman reaction , organocatalysis.
