The main objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive survey of methods used for
stereoselective construction of carbon–nitrogen bonds during the total synthesis of nitrogen …

Classical amination methods involve the reaction of a nitrogen nucleophile with an
electrophilic carbon center; however, in recent years, umpoled strategies have gained …

A solid‐supported dipeptide‐catalyzed continuous‐flow process was developed for the
direct enantioselective α‐amination of aldehydes with dibenzyl azodicarboxylate as the …

This study aims to develop an intermolecular lactonization reaction of alkenes with
carbonyls mediated by visible light and molecular iodine. The one-step reaction involved the …

Photoredox catalysis has become a universal tool to catalyze a wide variety of chemical
reactions with high selectivity under mild conditions. However, traditional photocatalysis …

A simple and highly efficient approach to hydroxylated pyrrolizidine and indolizidine is
developed from an aldehyde as a starting material using organocatalytic and asymmetric …

The direct α-amination of carbonyl compounds using organocatalysts represents a powerful
and atom-economical tool for asymmetric C–N bond formation. We describe a complete …

A general approach for the synthesis of pyrolidine member of sedum alkaloids has been
developed by employing proline catalysed sequential α-amination and Horner–Wadsworth …

Abstract γ‐Lactones and their derivatives show diverse biological activities, and lactone
skeletons are found in various naturally occurring products, pharmaceuticals, and …

A very efficient route to the diastereoselective synthesis of polyhydroxy pyrrolidines,
piperidines and azepanes from an aldehyde derivative of ribose is reported. Asymmetric α …
