This review focuses on the recent developments of unsymmetrically-substituted multidentate
Schiff bases whose steric and electronic characteristics are easily manipulated by selecting …

Over the last few years, many Schiff base complexes of metal ions have exhibited
substantial catalytic activity in various reactions such as oxidation, Henry reaction …

A small library of C 1-symmetric chiral diamines (L1− L9) was constructed via condensing
exo-(−)-bornylamine or (+)-(1 S, 2 S, 5 R)-menthylamine with various Cbz-protected amino …

A series of bis (sulfonamide)− diamine (BSDA) ligands were synthesized from commercially
available chiral α-amino alcohols and diamines. The chiral BSDA ligand 3a, coordinated …

A complex derived from the enantiomeric bipiperidine and copper (II) acetate hydrate is an
efficient catalyst for the enantioselective Henry reaction. The easy availability of both catalyst …

It's in the water! A new copper tertiary amine complex was prepared and applied in
asymmetric Henry reactions in water and in the short synthesis of (S)‐N‐trans‐feruloyl …

A group of modified (salen) Cr (III) Cl complexes with bulky benzylic substituents in the 3,
3′-position of the salicylidene moiety have been successfully applied for the asymmetric …

Henry reaction is one of the most classical reactions to construct synthetically useful product
nitro alcohol, which as a privileged skeleton is widely distributed in various pharmaceuticals …

An efficient asymmetric alkenylation between 3-vinylindoles and isatin derivatives was
developed under catalysis of a chiral copper complex. A series of optically active 3-alkenyl-3 …

A new bifunctional copper complex of the aminoisoborneol Schiff base–Cu2 (SBAIB‐d) 2–
has been developed for the effective direct catalytic asymmetric Henry reaction. One mol …
