The nitrosocarbonyls (R–CONO) are highly reactive species and remarkable intermediates
toward different synthetic targets. This review will cover a research area whose impact in …

The synthesis of α-amino carbonyl/carboxyl compounds is a contemporary challenge in
organic synthesis. Herein, we present a stereoselective α-amination of amides employing …

Catalytic carbon–nitrogen bond formation in hydrocarbons is an appealing synthetic tool to
access valuable nitrogen-containing compounds. Although a number of synthetic …

A direct copper-catalyzed highly chemoselective α-amination is described. Acylpyrazole
proved to be a highly efficient enolate precursor of a carboxylic acid oxidation state …

We report herein an Ir-catalyzed intermolecular amino group transfer to β-keto esters
(amides) to access α-aminocarbonyl products with excellent chemoselectivity. The key …

An unprecedented catalytic asymmetric allylation of isatins and isatin‐derived ketimines is
reported enabled by a gold and chiral organocatalyst cooperative catalysis strategy. This …

Despite the remarkable advances in the area of asymmetric catalytic oxidations over the
past decades, the development of sustainable and environmentally benign enantioselective …

There are several reports on the synthesis of alkylamines, but most of the reported methods
are not suitable for the synthesis of hindered amines. In this research, we found that a …

A boron-catalyzed α-amination of simple carboxylic acids was developed. Catalytically
generated boron enolates of carboxylic acids reacted with an electrophilic aminating …

5, 5-Disubstituted hydantoins, formally the cyclisation products of quaternary amino acids,
were formed connectively from simple ester-derived starting materials by a one-pot tandem …
