Ever‐evolving catalyst advances in synthetic protocols using water as a reaction medium
have enriched the understanding of sustainable organic chemistry. Because conventional …

Asymmetric aldol reactions are a powerful method for the construction of carbon–carbon
bonds in an enantioselective fashion. Historically this reaction has been performed in a …

The use of modern kinetic tools to obtain virtually continuous reaction progress data over the
course of a catalytic reaction opens up a vista that provides mechanistic insights into both …

Organocatalysis has captured the imagination of a significant group of synthetic chemists.
Much of the mechanistic understanding of these reactions has come from computational …

Catalysis with chiral secondary amines (asymmetric aminocatalysis) has become a well‐
established and powerful synthetic tool for the chemo‐and enantioselective functionalization …

Proline is a non‐toxic and inexpensive natural amino acid that is readily available in both

Chiral metal nanoclusters have recently been attracting great attention. It is challenging to
realize asymmetric catalysis via atomically precise metal nanoclusters. Herein, we report the …

Functionalization of dicarboxylate linkers with proline was used to generate catalytically
active metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) for diastereoselective aldol addition. Due to high …

A simple highly versatile and efficient synthesis of 2, 4, 5-trisubstituted imidazoles is
achieved by three-component cyclocondensation of 1, 2-dicarbonyl compound, aldehyde …
