Abstract
Vinylidene ortho-quinone methides (VQMs) have been proven to be versatile and crucial intermediates in the catalytic asymmetric reaction in last decade, and thus have drawn considerable concentrations on account of the practical application in the construction of enantiomerically pure functional organic molecules. However, in comparison to the well established chiral Brønsted base-catalyzed asymmetric reaction via VQMs, chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed reaction is rarely studied and there is no systematic summary to date. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in the chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed asymmetric reaction via VQMs according to three types of reactions: a) intermolecular asymmetric nucleophilic addition to VQMs; b) intermolecular asymmetric cycloaddition of VQMs; c) intramolecular asymmetric cyclization of VQMs. Finally, we put forward the remained challenges and opportunities for potential breakthroughs in this area.

Abstract
An efficient and highly enantioconvergent and diastereoselective ternary catalysis in a one-pot process is reported, which represents an integrated strategy for the synthesis of atropisomeric hydrazides with defined vicinal central and axial chirality from readily available racemic α-amino-ynones, azodicarboxylates, and Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) carbonates. This method utilizes in situ-generated racemic pyrrolin-4-ones via hydroamination of racemic α-amino-ynones by AuCl catalysis as a novel and versatile C1 synthon, which engage commercially available azodicarboxylates to generate amination products in high yields and uniformly excellent enantioselectivities under the catalysis of a chiral phosphoric acid. Following amination, N-alkylation catalyzed by diastereoselective organocatalyst afforded axially chiral hydrazides with excellent diastereoselectivities (>98 : 2 dr). The synthetic utility of the amination products and axially chiral hydrazides was also demonstrated by their facile conversion to diverse molecules in high yields with excellent stereopurity. Density functional theory calculations were performed to understand the origin of diastereoselectivity.

Abstract
In the vast majority of top-selling pharmaceutical and industrial products, phenolic structural motifs are highly prevalent. Non-functionalized simple phenols serve as building blocks in the synthesis of value-added chemicals. It is worth mentioning that lignin, being the largest renewable biomass source of aromatic building blocks in nature, mainly consists of phenolic units, which enable the production of structurally diverse phenols. Given their remarkable applicability in the chemical value chain, many efforts have been devoted to increasing the molecular complexity of the phenolic scaffold. Among the key techniques, direct functionalization of Csp2-H is a powerful tool, enabling the construction of new Csp2-C bonds in an economical and atomic manner. Herein we present and summarize the large plethora of direct Csp2-H functionalization methods that enables scaffold diversification of simple, unprotected phenols, leading to the formation of new Csp2-C bonds. In this review article, we intend to summarize the contributions that appeared in the literature mainly in the last 5 years dealing with the functionalization of unprotected phenols, both catalytic and non-catalytic. Our goal is to highlight the key findings and the ongoing challenges in the stimulating and growing research dedicated to the development of new protocols for the valorization of phenols.

Abstract
Demonstrated here is an asymmetric nucleophilic addition via primary activation of para-quinone methides (p-QMs) based on a chiral phosphoric acid catalytic system. In sharp contrast to previous CPA-based bifunctional activation processes that all required the nucleophiles to have an effective hydrogen bond donor unit (e.g., OH, NH), here no such unit is required in the nucleophile. N-protected indole nucleophiles were successfully utilized for the synthesis of chiral tetraarylmethanes with high efficiency and enantioselectivity under mild conditions. Therefore, this protocol significantly expanded the scope of asymmetric transformations of p-QMs.

Abstract
Conjugated trienes are fascinating building blocks for the rapid construction of complex polycyclic compounds. However, limited success has been achieved due to the challenging regioselectivity control. Herein, we report an enantio- and diastereoselective process allowing to regioselectively control the functionalization of NH-triene-carbamates. Synthesis of chiral cis-3,6-dihydro-2H-1,2-oxazines is achieved by a chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed Nitroso-Diels-Alder cycloaddition involving [(1E,3E,5E)-hexa-1,3,5-trien-1-yl]carbamates. Moreover, modular access to three different regioisomers with excellent diastereoselectivities and high to excellent enantioselectivities is obtained by a careful choice of the reaction conditions. A computational study reveals that the regioselectivity is influenced by the steric demand of the substituents at the 6-position of the triene, as well as noncovalent interactions between the two cycloaddition partners. Utility of each regioisomeric cycloadduct is highlighted by a variety of synthetic transformations.

Abstract
Stereoselective protonation is a challenge in asymmetric catalysis. The small size and high rate of transfer of protons mean that face-selective delivery to planar intermediates is hard to control, but it can unlock previously obscure asymmetric transformations. Particularly, when coupled with a preceding decarboxylation, enantioselective protonation can convert the abundant acid feedstocks into structurally diverse chiral molecules. Here an anchoring group strategy is demonstrated as a potential alternative and supplement to the conventional structural modification of catalysts by creating additional catalyst-substrate interactions. We show that a tailored benzamide group in aminomalonic acids can help build a coordinated network of non-covalent interactions, including hydrogen bonds, π-π interactions and dispersion forces, with a chiral acid catalyst. This allows enantioselective decarboxylative protonation to give α-amino acids. The malonate-based synthesis introduces side chains via a facile substitution of aminomalonic esters and thus can access structurally and functionally diverse amino acids.

Abstract
In nature, cyclopropylcarbinyl cation is often involved in cationic cascade reactions catalyzed by natural enzymes to produce a great number of structurally diverse natural substances. However, mimicking this natural process with artificial organic catalysts remains a daunting challenge in synthetic chemistry. We report a small molecule-catalyzed asymmetric rearrangement of cyclopropylcarbinyl cations, leading to a series of chiral homoallylic sulfide products with good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities (up to 99% enantiomeric excess). In the presence of a chiral SPINOL-derived N-triflyl phosphoramide catalyst, the dehydration of prochiral cyclopropylcarbinols occurs rapidly to generate symmetrical cyclopropylcarbinyl cations, which are subsequently trapped by thione-containing nucleophiles. A subgram-scale experiment and multiple downstream transformations of the sulfide products are further pursued to demonstrate the synthetic utility. Notably, a few heteroaromatic sulfone derivatives could serve as "covalent warhead" in the enzymatic inhibition of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 main protease.

Abstract
The integration of oxidation and enantioselective reduction enables a redox deracemization to directly access enantioenriched products from their corresponding racemates. However, the solution of the kinetically microscopic reversibility of substrates used in this oxidation/reduction unidirectional event is a great challenge. To address this issue, we have developed a light-driven strategy to enable an efficient redox deracemization of cyclamines. The method combines a photocatalyst and a chiral phosphoric acid in a toluene/aqueous cyclodextrin emulsion biphasic co-solvent system to drive the cascade out-of-equilibrium. Systemic optimizations achieve a feasible oxidation/reduction cascade sequence, and mechanistic investigations demonstrate a unidirectional process. This single-operation cascade route, which involves initial photocatalyzed oxidation of achiral cyclamines to cyclimines and subsequent chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed enantioselective reduction of cyclimines to chiral cyclamines, is suitable for constructing optically pure indolines and tetrahydroquinolines.

Abstract
We report herein the first examples of chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed enantioselective Diels-Alder reactions between 2-trifluoroacetamido-1,3-dienes 1 and α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds 2. Polysubstituted 1-acetamido cyclohexenes 3 were formed in high yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities. The reaction proceeds through a stepwise process as shown by deuterium labelling experiments. A catalytic enantioselective three-component reaction of 1, 2 and ortho-hydroxybenzhydryl alcohols 4 was subsequently developed furnishing the densely functionalized hexahydroxanthenes 5 in a highly stereoselective manner. This multicomponent reaction generates four chemical bonds with concurrent creation of five contiguous stereocenters.

Abstract
Heterogeneous Brønsted acidic catalysts such as phosphoric acids are the conventional activators for organic transformations. However, the photocatalytic performance of these catalysts is still rarely explored. Herein, a novel Zr-based metal-organic framework Zr-MOF-P with phosphoric acids as a heterogeneous photocatalyst has been fabricated, which shows high selectivity and reactivity towards the photo-oxidation of sulfides under white light illumination. A mechanism study indicates that the selective oxygenation of sulfides occurs with triplet oxygen rather than common reactive oxygen species (ROS). When Zr-MOF-P is irradiated, the hydroxyl group of phosphoric acid is converted into oxygen radical, which takes an electron from the sulfides, and then the activated substrates react with the triplet oxygen to form sulfoxides, avoiding the destruction of the catalysts and endowing the reaction with high substrate compatibility and fine recyclability.

Abstract
An efficient catalytic system for the conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into N-containing compounds over low-cost non-noble-metal catalysts is preferable, but it is challenging to reach high conversion and selectivity under mild conditions. Herein, an Al2 O3 -supported carbon-doped Ni catalyst was obtained via the direct pyrolysis-reduction of a mixture of Ni3 (BTC)2 ⋅ 12H2 O and Al2 O3 , generating stable Ni0 species due to the presence of carbon residue. A high yield of 96 % was observed in the reductive amination of HMF into 5-hydroxymethyl furfurylamine (HMFA) with ammonia and hydrogen at ambient temperature. The catalyst was recyclable and could be applied to the ambient-temperature synthesis of HMF-based secondary/tertiary amines and other biomass-derived amines from the carbonyl compounds. The significant performance was attributable to the synergistic effect of Ni0 species and acidic property of the support Al2 O3 , which promoted the selective ammonolysis of the imine intermediate while inhibiting the potential side reaction of over-hydrogenation.

Abstract
The nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling reaction of acyl chloride with racemic secondary α-trifluoromethyl bromide has been developed. By this chemistry, a series of structurally interesting chiral α-CF3 carbonyl compounds could be accessed with great enantioselectivity and good functional group tolerance. The study of late-stage transformation indicated that this chemistry could be used as the robust method to prepare products that contain a bioactive motif. Furthermore, the importance of the α-trifluoromethyl group to this reaction has been illustrated by control experiments.

Abstract
We report herein a novel approach involving optical resolution of (±)-1,16-dihydroxytetraphenylene (DHTP) by chiral gold(iii) complexation. This method features several key advantages, i.e., recyclability of chiral resolution reagents, feasibility of scaling up to gram quantities, and operational simplicity. On the basis of this method, which led to optically pure DHTP, a library of 2,15-diaryl (S)-DHTPs and several (S)-DHTP-derived phosphoramidite ligands were synthesized. Finally, the superior performance of a (S)-DHTP phosphoramidite ligand was demonstrated by efficient iridium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkynylation reactions.

Abstract
In the past two decades, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or porous coordination polymers (PCPs) assembled from metal ions or clusters and organic linkers via metal-ligand coordination bonds have captivated significant scientific interest on account of their high crystallinity, exceptional porosity, and tunable pore size, high modularity, and diverse functionality. The opportunity to achieve functional porous materials by design with promising properties, unattainable for solid-state materials in general, distinguishes MOFs from other classes of materials, in particular, traditional porous materials such as activated carbon, silica, and zeolites, thereby leading to complementary properties. Scientists have conducted intense research in the production of chiral MOF (CMOF) materials for specific applications including but not limited to chiral recognition, separation, and catalysis since the discovery of the first functional CMOF (i.e., d- or l-POST-1). At present, CMOFs have become interdisciplinary between chirality chemistry, coordination chemistry, and material chemistry, which involve in many subjects including chemistry, physics, optics, medicine, pharmacology, biology, crystal engineering, environmental science, etc. In this review, we will systematically summarize the recent progress of CMOFs regarding design strategies, synthetic approaches, and cutting-edge applications. In particular, we will highlight the successful implementation of CMOFs in asymmetric catalysis, enantioselective separation, enantioselective recognition, and sensing. We envision that this review will provide readers a good understanding of CMOF chemistry and, more importantly, facilitate research endeavors for the rational design of multifunctional CMOFs and their industrial implementation.

Abstract
Catalytic deracemization of α-branched aldehydes is a direct strategy to construct enantiopure α-tertiary carbonyls, which are essential to pharmaceutical applications. Here, we report a photochemical E/Z isomerization strategy for the deracemization of α-branched aldehydes by using simple aminocatalysts and readily available photosensitizers. A variety of racemic α-branched aldehydes could be directly transformed into either enantiomer with high selectivity. Rapid photodynamic E/Z isomerization and highly stereospecific iminium/enamine tautomerization are two key factors that underlie the enantioenrichment. This study presents a distinctive photochemical E/Z isomerization strategy for externally tuning enamine catalysis.

Abstract
Computations and experiments leading to new chiral phosphoric acids (CPAs) for epoxide thionations are reported. Density functional theory calculations reveal the mechanism and origin of the enantioselectivity of such CPA-catalyzed epoxide thionations. The calculated mechanistic information was used to design new efficient CPAs that were tested experimentally and found to be highly effective. Bulky ortho-substituents on the 3,3'-aryl groups of the CPA are important to restrict the position of the epoxide in the key transition states for the enantioselectivity-determining step. Larger para-substituents significantly improve the enantioselectivity of the reaction.

Abstract
The synthesis of unnatural α-amino acid derivatives has attracted considerable interest in recent years, as they are ubiquitous in protein synthesis and peptide-based drug discovery. Herein, we reported the chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed asymmetric reaction of indoles with β,γ-alkynyl-α-imino esters for the enantioselective synthesis of unnatural indole-based α-amino acid derivatives. This asymmetric organocatalysis protocol enables efficient synthesis of unnatural α-amino acid derivatives with a tetrasubstituted stereogenic center and an alkyne moiety with up to 99% yield and 98% ee, resulting in operationally simple conditions, short reaction time, and broad substrate scope.

Abstract
In the most general practice of asymmetric catalysis, a chiral catalyst, typically bearing a center or an axis of chirality, is employed as the chiral source for imparting enantiocontrol over the developing product. Given the current interest toward optically pure compounds, various forms of chiral induction enabled by diverse chiral sources as well as the use of multiple catalysts under one-pot conditions have been in focus. In one such promising development, an achiral N-sulfonamide protected 1,6-amino allyl alcohol (NaphSO2NHCH2C(Ph)2CH2CH

CHCH2OH) was subjected to Tsuji–Trost activation and an intramolecular amination to form important chiral pyrrolidine frameworks. A dual catalytic system comprising Pd(PPh3)4 and DAPCy (β-cyclohexyl substituted double axially chiral phosphoric acid derived from two homocoupled BINOL backbones with a dynamic central chiral axis) under mild conditions was reported to offer quantitative conversion with an ee of 95%. Here, we provide molecular insights into the origin of chiral induction by DAPCy, as obtained through a comprehensive density functional theory (SMD(toluene)/B3LYP-D3/6-31G**,Pd(SDD)) investigation. Two key steps in the mechanism are identified to involve a cooperative mode of activation of the Pd-bound allyl alcohol in the form of a Pd-π-allyl moiety at one end of the substrate, followed by an intramolecular nucleophilic addition of N-sulfonamide from the other end to yield a pyrrolidine derivative bearing an α-vinyl stereogenic center. (S,R,S)-DAPCy is found to steer the dehydroxylation to yield a Pd-π-allyl intermediate with a suitably poised si prochiral face for the nucleophilic addition. In the enantiocontrolled (as well as the turn-over determining step) nucleophilic addition, the chiral catalyst is identified to serve as a chiral phosphate counterion. The chiral induction is facilitated by a series of N–H⋯O, C–H⋯O, C–H⋯π, lone pair (lp)⋯π, O–H⋯O, O–H⋯π, and π⋯π noncovalent interactions, which is noted as more effective in the lower energy C–N bond formation transition state through the si prochiral face of the Pd-π-allyl moiety. These insights into the novel dynamic axially double chiral catalyst could be valuable toward exploiting such modes of stereoinduction. The origin of enantiocontrol in an intramolecular amination involving Pd(PPh3)4 and a double axially chiral phosphoric acid (DAPCy) dual catalytic system is traced to a more effective series of noncovalent interactions in the lower energy C–N bond formation transition state.![]()

Abstract
Atroposelective resolution for axially chiral nicotinamides was achieved by dynamic chiral salt formation with L-DBTA using six types of nicotinamides that could not be optically resolved by the preferential crystallization method. Kinetic studies of their racemization indicated that the chiral conformation was retained for a significant period of time. Two methods of crystallization-induced asymmetric transformation were examined by dynamic diastereomeric salt formation: solvent evaporation from a supersaturated solution, and attrition-enhanced asymmetric transformation. The attrition method was more effective for asymmetric amplification of diastereomeric salts of axially chiral materials. Attrition of equimolar amount of the nicotinamide salts with L-DBTA converged to one diastereomer salts, and the corresponding enantiomers in 87-99 % ee were obtained after the chiral acid was removed. Changing the ratio of two of the nicotinamides with L-DBTA to 1 : 2 inverted the axial chirality.

Abstract
In ion pairing catalysis, the structures of late intermediates and transition states are key to understanding and further development of the field. Typically, a plethora of transition states is explored computationally. However, especially for ion pairs the access to energetics via computational chemistry is difficult and experimental data is rare. Here, we present for the first time extensive NMR spectroscopic insights about the ternary complex of a catalyst, substrate, and reagent in ion pair catalysis exemplified by chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation. Quantum chemistry calculations were validated by a large amount of NMR data for the structural and energetic assessment of binary and ternary complexes. In the ternary complexes, the expected catalyst/imine H-bond switches to an unexpected O-H-N structure, not yet observed in the multiple hydrogen-bond donor-acceptor situation such as disulfonimides (DSIs). This arrangement facilitates the hydride transfer from the Hantzsch ester in the transition states. In these reactions with very high isomerization barriers preventing fast pre-equilibration, the reaction barriers from the ternary complex to the transition states determine the enantioselectivity, which deviates from the relative transition state energies. Overall, the weak hydrogen bonding, the hydrogen bond switching and the special geometrical adaptation of substrates in disulfonimide catalyst complexes explain the robustness towards more challenging substrates and show that DSIs have the potential to combine high flexibility and high stereoselectivity.

Abstract
N-Triflylphosphoramides (NTPA), have become increasingly popular catalysts in the development of enantioselective transformations as they are stronger Brønsted acids than the corresponding phosphoric acids (PA). Their highly acidic, asymmetric active site can activate difficult, unreactive substrates. In this review, we present an account of asymmetric transformations using this type of catalyst that have been reported in the past ten years and we classify these reactions using the enantio-determining step as the key criterion. This compendium of NTPA-catalysed reactions is organised into the following categories: (1) cycloadditions, (2) electrocyclisations, polyene and related cyclisations, (3) addition reactions to imines, (4) electrophilic aromatic substitutions, (5) addition reactions to carbocations, (6) aldol and related reactions, (7) addition reactions to double bonds, and (8) rearrangements and desymmetrisations. We highlight the use of NTPA in total synthesis and suggest mnemonics which account for their enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Nitrogen-containing scaffolds are ubiquitous in nature and constitute an important class of building blocks in organic synthesis. The asymmetric aza-Michael reaction (aza-MR) alone or in tandem with other organic reaction(s) is an important synthetic tool to form new C-N bond(s) leading to developing new libraries of diverse types of bioactive nitrogen compounds. The synthesis and application of a variety of organocatalysts for accomplishing highly useful organic syntheses without causing environmental pollution in compliance with 'Green Chemistry" has been a landmark development in the recent past. Application of many of these organocatalysts has been extended to asymmetric aza-MR during the last two decades. The present article overviews the literature published during the last 10 years concerning the asymmetric aza-MR of amines and amides catalysed by organocatalysts. Both types of the organocatalysts, i.e., those acting through non-covalent interactions and those working through covalent bond formation have been applied for the asymmetric aza-MR. Thus, the review includes the examples wherein cinchona alkaloids, squaramides, chiral amines, phase-transfer catalysts and chiral bifunctional thioureas have been used, which activate the substrates through hydrogen bond formation. Most of these reactions are accompanied by high yields and enantiomeric excesses. On the other hand, N-heterocyclic carbenes and chiral pyrrolidine derivatives acting through covalent bond formation such as the iminium ions with the substrates have also been included. Wherever possible, a comparison has been made between the efficacies of various organocatalysts in asymmetric aza-MR.

Abstract
Quantum chemical calculations have successfully predicted the stereoselectivities of many BINOL phosphoric acid catalyzed reactions over the past 10-15 years. Herein we report a contrasting example: a reaction for which standard quantum chemistry techniques have proven unexpectedly ineffective at explaining the stereoselectivity. The Nazarov cyclizations of a divinyl ketone catalyzed by a BINOL phosphoric acid or H8-BINOL dithiophosphoric acid were studied with a conventional contemporary quantum chemical approach, consisting of transition state optimizations with B3LYP-D3(BJ) and single-point calculations with several functionals in implicit solvent. Unexpectedly, different functionals gave widely different predictions of the level of enantioselectivity and were unable even to agree on which enantiomer of the product would predominate. Molecular dynamics simulations with the OPLS-AA force field provided evidence that the transition state geometries optimized with DFT in the gas phase or in implicit solvent are not good representations of the true transition states of these reactions in solution. One possible reason for this, which may also explain the failure of quantum chemical techniques to reliably predict the enantioselectivity, is the fact that the transition states contain ion pairs which are not highly organized and do not contain any strongly directional noncovalent interactions between the substrate and the catalyst.

Abstract
Since Akiyama and Terada independently reported the introduction of chiral phosphoric acids (CPAs) as effective catalysts for Mannich-type reactions in 2004, the field of CPA catalysis has grown immensely. Terada reported in 2008 the first example of the activation of aldehydes by a CPA. Based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations, Terada proposed a dual activation mode for this enantioselective aza-ene-type reaction between an aldehyde and an enecarbamate. In this model, hydrogen bonds between the catalyst's hydroxyl group and the carbonyl oxygen and the catalyst's P═O and the formyl proton were observed; the nucleophile then attacks without coordination to the catalyst. This reaction model provided the mechanistic basis for understanding Terada's reaction and many other asymmetric transformations. In the present study, DFT calculations are reported that identify a lower-energy mechanism for this landmark reaction. In this new model, hydrogen bonds between the catalyst's hydroxyl group and the aldehyde oxygen and the catalyst's P═O and the NH group of the enecarbamate are seen. The new model rationalizes the stereoselective outcome of Terada's reaction and offers insight into why a more sterically demanding catalyst gives lower levels of enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Catalytic enantioselective transformations provide well-established and direct access to stereogenic synthons that are broadly distributed among active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). These reactions have been demonstrated to benefit considerably from the merits of continuous processing and microreactor technology. Over the past few years, continuous flow enantioselective catalysis has grown into a mature field and has found diverse applications in asymmetric synthesis of pharmaceutically active substances. The present review therefore surveys flow chemistry-based approaches for the synthesis of chiral APIs and their advanced stereogenic intermediates, covering the utilization of biocatalysis, organometallic catalysis and metal-free organocatalysis to introduce asymmetry in continuously operated systems. Single-step processes, interrupted multistep flow syntheses, combined batch/flow processes and uninterrupted one-flow syntheses are discussed herein.

Abstract
The previously elusive catalytic enantioselective construction of axially chiral B-aryl-1,2-azaborines with a C-B stereogenic axis has been realized through a chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed desymmetrization strategy reported herein. The electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction of 3,5-disubsituted phenols with diazodicarboxamides could afford these axially chiral structures in good efficiency with excellent enantiocontrol. The efficient long-range stereochemical control is achieved by multiple well-defined H-bonding interactions between chiral phosphoric acid and both substrates. Meanwhile, the reaction duration could be markedly shortened with weakly acidic N-H in 1,2-azaborine acting as H-bond donor. The scalability of the reaction and facile cleavage of the N-N bond in the product further demonstrated the practicality of this method.

Abstract
A diastereodivergent and enantioselective synthesis of chiral spirocyclohexyl-indolenines with four contiguous stereogenic centers is achieved by a chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed cycloaddition of 2-susbtituted 3-indolylmethanols with 1,3-dienecarbamates. Modular access to two different diastereoisomers with high enantioselectivities was obtained by careful choice of reaction conditions. Their functional group manipulation provides an efficient access to enantioenriched spirocyclohexyl-indolines and -oxindoles. The origins of this stereocontrol have been identified using DFT calculations, which reveal an unexpected mechanism compared to our previous work dealing with enecarbamates.

Abstract
The efficacy and synthetic versatility of asymmetric organocatalysis have contributed enormously to the field of organic synthesis since the early 2000s. As asymmetric organocatalytic methods mature, they have extended beyond the academia and undergone scale-up for the production of chiral drugs, natural products, and enantiomerically enriched bioactive molecules. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the applications of asymmetric organocatalysis in medicinal chemistry. A general picture of asymmetric organocatalytic strategies in medicinal chemistry is firstly presented, and the specific applications of these strategies in pharmaceutical synthesis are systematically described, with a focus on the preparation of antiviral, anticancer, neuroprotective, cardiovascular, antibacterial, and antiparasitic agents, as well as several miscellaneous bioactive agents. The review concludes with a discussion of the challenges, limitations and future prospects for organocatalytic asymmetric synthesis of medicinally valuable compounds.
