Abstract

Chiral amines are fundamentally important structural components of biologically important compounds such as natural products, drugs, and agrochemicals. Catalytic asymmetric reduction of imines is one of the most efficient methods for their preparation and has long been among the central topics in asymmetric synthesis.[1] However, thus far only limited success has been observed in the development of this transformation, in contrast to the ...
