Abstract
Chiral aminonitriles not only are broadly useful building blocks but also increasingly appear as structural motifs in bioactive molecules and pharmaceuticals. The catalytic asymmetric synthesis of chiral aminonitriles, therefore, has been intensively investigated, as reflected in numerous reports of catalytic asymmetric Strecker reactions. Despite such great progress, the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of chiral α,α-dialkyl aminonitriles in a highly selective and efficient manner is still a formidable challenge. Here, we report a new approach for the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of chiral α,α-dialkyl aminonitriles via reaction of cyanoketimines with enals. We demonstrate that this reaction could be carried out with as low as 20 ppm catalyst loading.

Abstract
Asymmetric cyanation of α-ketimino esters catalyzed by combined systems of amino acid/BINAP derivative/Ru(II) complexes and lithium compounds was examined. The use of an appropriate combination of amino acid and BINAP ligands achieved high enantioselectivity for a variety of α-alkynyl (Val/XylBINAP/Ru), α-alkenyl (Val/TolBINAP/Ru), and α-aryl imino esters (Val/XylBINAP/Ru) as well as an isatin-derived cyclic imino amide (t-Leu/BINAP/Ru) to afford the α-cyano-α-amino esters and the amide with an α-nitrogen-substituted quaternary chiral center with up to 98% ee.

Abstract
A highly enantioselective cyanation of imines (up to >99 % ee) has been developed using well-designed C2 -symmetric hydrogen bonding catalysts. The catalytic strategy was characterized with low catalyst loading (0.1-1 mol %), easily accessible catalysts with diverse functional groups, and catalytic base additives. A wide range of imines, including the challenging N-Boc and N-Cbz protected ketimines and aldimines, as well as fluoroalkylated ketimines, were investigated under mild conditions to afford the products with good to excellent yields (up to 99 % yield) and high enantioselectivity (up to >99 % ee). Control experiments revealed that the multiple hydrogen bonding catalysts enhanced the reactivity and enantioselectivity of the Strecker reaction initiated by the base.

Abstract
Here, we report an unprecedented catalytic enantioselective cyanation of ketonitrones enabled by the bifunctional cyanating reagent Me2(CH2Cl)SiCN. This approach allows facile access to optically active N-hydroxyl-α-amino nitriles that are of high synthetic value but difficult to acquire by other methods. The use of bifunctional cyanating reagent Me2(CH2Cl)SiCN not only achieves an enantioselectivity higher than that with TMSCN but also enables various diversification reactions of the resulting silylated adducts. This represents the first enantioselective catalytic nucleophilic addition reaction of unactivated ketone-derived nitrones, exhibiting the potential of such tetrasubstituted C═N bonds for asymmetric synthesis of N-hydroxy α-amino acids and other N-hydroxy tertiary amines.
