Abstract
A stereocontrolled protocol was developed to construct less accessible fluorine-containing acyclic tetrasubstituted stereocenters bearing two sterically and electronically similar alkyl groups at the α-position of carbonyls. In this process, tBuOK-promoted stereospecific α-deprotonation of α,α-disubstituted N-tert-butanesulfinyl ketimines or NH deprotonation of β,β-disubstituted enesulfinamides generates geometry-defined multisubstituted metalloenamines, followed by stereoselective electrophilic fluorination with the N-fluoro ammonium salt of quinine, affording the acyclic α-fluorinated ketimines with excellent diastereoselectivities.

Abstract
Aldehydes constitute a main class of organic compounds widely applied in synthesis. As such, catalyst-controlled enantioselective α-functionalization of aldehydes has attracted great interest over the years. In this context, α-branched aldehydes are especially challenging substrates because of reactivity and selectivity issues. Firstly, the transient trisubstituted enamines and enolates resulting upon treatment with an aminocatalyst or a base, respectively, would exhibit attenuated reactivity; secondly, mixtures of E- and Z-configured enamines/enolates may be formed; and third, effective face-discrimination on such trisubstituted sp2 carbon intermediates by the incoming electrophilic reagent is not trivial. Despite these issues, in the last 15 years, several catalytic approaches for the α-functionalization of prostereogenic α-branched aldehydes that proceed in useful yields and diastereo- and enantioselectivity have been uncovered. Developments include both organocatalytic and metal-catalyzed approaches as well as dual catalysis strategies for forging new carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom (C-O, N, S, F, Cl, Br, …) bond formation at Cα of the starting aldehyde. In this review, some key early contributions to the field are presented, but focus is on the most recent methods, mainly covering the literature from year 2014 onward.

Abstract
A general method for synthesizing optically active, primary, secondary, and tertiary organofluorides was developed. This chiral pool synthesis utilized the skeleton of arabinose to generate diastereomerically pure 2-oxazolidinone-fused aziridines, which underwent ring opening with a fluoride anion. The adducts, polyoxygenated organofluorides, were useful precursors to various fluorinated compounds, such as fluorinated amino acids.

Abstract
A reagent-controlled highly stereoselective reaction between (S)-difluoromethyl phenyl sulfoximine 1 and imines is reported, and this synthetic method provides a variety of enantiomerically enriched α-difluoromethyl amines. The main pros of this approach include high efficiency, high stereoselectivity, and a broad substrate scope, which is probably achieved through a non-chelating transition state.

Abstract
Organocatalysts are abundantly used for various transformations, particularly to obtain highly enantio- and diastereomeric pure products by controlling the stereochemistry. These applications of organocatalysts have been the topic of several reviews. Organocatalysts have emerged as one of the very essential areas of research due to their mild reaction conditions, cost-effective nature, non-toxicity, and environmentally benign approach that obviates the need for transition metal catalysts and other toxic reagents. Various types of organocatalysts including amine catalysts, Brønsted acids, and Lewis bases such as N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysts, cinchona alkaloids, 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP), and hydrogen bond-donating catalysts, have gained renewed interest because of their regioselectivity. In this review, we present recent advances in regiodivergent reactions that are governed by organocatalysts. Additionally, we briefly discuss the reaction pathways of achieving regiodivergent products by changes in conditions such as solvents, additives, or the temperature.

Abstract
Efficient access to two enantiomers of one chiral compound is critical for the discovery of drugs. However, it is still a challenging problem owing to the difficulty in obtaining two enantiomers of one chiral catalyst. Here, we report a general method to obtain both enantiomeric products via fine tuning the hydrogen-bonding interactions of phosphonium salts. Amino acid derived phosphonium salts and dipeptide derived phosphonium salts exhibited different properties for controlling the transition state, which could efficiently promote the Michael addition reaction to give opposite configurations of products with high yields and enantioselectivities. Preliminary investigations on the mechanism of the reaction and applications of the products were also performed.

Abstract
We have demonstrated the efficient chiral analysis of fluorine-containing compounds by 19F NMR spectroscopy. The highly sensitive fluorine nucleus allowed chiral analysis of complex mixtures and even asymmetric reaction mixtures of multisubstrates. A single 19F NMR experiment was sufficient to determine the enantiomeric excesses and yields of the five products simultaneously.

A highly enantioselective homogeneous fluorination of cyclic β-keto esters catalyzed by diphenylamine linked bis(oxazoline)-Cu(OTf)2 complexes has been established in a continuous flow microreactor. The microreactor allowed an efficient transformation with reaction times ranging from 0.5 to 20 min, and the desired products were afforded in high yields (up to 99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) at a low catalyst loading of 1 mol%.

Abstract
An enantioselective Strecker reaction to construct trifluoromethylated quaternary stereocenters with N-PMP and unexplored N-Boc trifluoromethyl ketimines catalyzed using an organophosphine dual-reagent catalyst has been developed. The enantioselectivities of the corresponding products with the same catalyst could be switched by using different N-protecting groups (N-PMP or N-Boc). The trifluoromethyl amino nitriles were obtained in high yield and high enantioselectivity in a short time and could be easily converted to a variety of useful trifluoromethyl-containing compounds.

Abstract
The synthesis and application of a newly designed C2-symmetric chiral bifunctional triamine family ( C2-CBT) is reported. These enantiopure chiral triamine scaffolds can be accessed in multigram amounts from simple amino acids while avoiding chromatographic purification. As a proof of principle, C2-CBT has been studied in the aldol reaction of cyclic ketones with isatins, with the target tertiary alcohols being formed in a highly efficient manner. Catalyst recovery by simple extraction techniques and subsequent reuse has been performed.
