Asymmetric Aminocatalysis—Gold Rush in Organic Chemistry

Melchiorre, Paolo, Marigo, Mauro, Carlone, Armando, Bartoli, Giuseppe·2008·Angewandte Chemie International Edition

Abstract

Catalysis with chiral secondary amines (asymmetric aminocatalysis) has become a well‐established and powerful synthetic tool for the chemo‐ and enantioselective functionalization of carbonyl compounds. In the last eight years alone, this field has grown at such an extraordinary pace that it is now recognized as an independent area of synthetic chemistry, where the goal is the preparation of any chiral molecule in an efficient, rapid, and stereoselective manner. This has been made possible by the impressive level of scientific competition and high quality research generated in this area. This Review describes this “Asymmetric Aminocatalysis Gold Rush” and charts the milestones in its development. As in all areas of science, progress depends on human effort.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
