Abstract
Just like Nature: A recently developed enantioselective organocatalytic biomimetic transamination provides an elegant approach towards chiral amines. In the presence of an asymmetric phase-transfer catalyst, the intermediate anionic species undergoes an asymmetric C-C bond-forming reaction in a powerful and broadly applicable asymmetric umpolung strategy.Entities:
