Abstract
The asymmetric catalytic synthesis of 1,2-diamines has received considerable interest, especially in the last ten years, due to their presence in biologically active compounds and their applications for the development of synthetic building blocks, chiral ligands and organocatalysts. Synthetic strategies based on C-N bond-forming reactions involve mainly (a) ring opening of aziridines and azabenzonorbornadienes, (b) hydroamination of allylic amines, (c) hydroamination of enamines and (d) diamination of olefins. In the case of C-C bond-forming reactions are included (a) the aza-Mannich reaction of imino esters, imino nitriles, azlactones, isocyano acetates, and isothiocyanates with imines, (b) the aza-Henry reaction of nitroalkanes with imines, (c) imine-imine coupling reactions, and (d) reductive coupling of enamines with imines, and (e) [3+2] cycloaddition with imines. C-H bond forming reactions include hydrogenation of CN bonds and C-H amination reactions. Other catalytic methods include desymmetrization reactions of meso-diamines.

Abstract
The asymmetric reactions of imines continued to attract the attention of the scientific community for decades. However, the stereoselective reactions of N-phosphonyl/phosphoryl imines remained less explored as compared to other N-substituted imines. The chiral auxiliary-based asymmetric-induction strategy with N-phosphonyl imines could effectively generate enantio- and diastereomeric amine, α,β-diamine, and other products through various reactions. On the other hand, the asymmetric approach for the generation of chirality through the utilization of optically active ligands, along with metal catalysts, could be successfully implemented on N-phosphonyl/phosphoryl imines to access numerous synthetically challenging chiral amine scaffolds. The current review critically summarizes and reveals the literature precedence of more than a decade to highlight the major achievements existing to date that can display a clear picture of advancement as well drawbacks in this area.

Abstract
A multifunctional (noncovalent) catalyst containing halogen-bond donor, hydrogen-bond donor, and Lewis basic sites was developed and applied in an enantioselective Mannich reaction between malononitrile and diphenylphosphinoyl-protected aldimine affording products in high yields (up to 98%) and moderate to high enantiomeric purities (ee up to 89%). Typically, noncovalent catalysts rely on several weak interactions to activate the substrate, with one or two of these giving the most notable contribution to activation. In this instance, instead of the initially proposed coactivation by halogen bonding, it was revealed that hydrogen bonding plays a key role in determining the enantioselectivity.

Abstract
A pair of chiral bis(amidine) [BAM] proton complexes provide reagent (catalyst)-controlled, highly diastereo- and enantioselective direct aza-Henry reactions leading to α-alkyl-substituted α,β-diamino esters. A C2-symmetric ligand provides high anti-selectivity, while a nonsymmetric congener exhibits syn-selectivity in this example of diastereodivergent, enantioselective catalysis. A detailed computational analysis is reported for the first time, one that supports distinct models for selectivity resulting from the more hindered binding cavity of the C1-symmetric ligand. Binding in this congested pocket accommodates four hydrogen bond contacts among ligands and substrates, ultimately favoring a pre-syn arrangement highlighted by pyridinium-azomethine activation and quinolinium-nitronate activation. The complementary transition states reveal a wide range of alternatives. Comparing the C1- and C2-symmetric catalysts highlights distinct electrophile binding orientations despite their common hydrogen bond donor-acceptor features. Among the factors driving unusual high syn-diastereoselection are favorable dispersion forces that leverage the anthracenyl substituent of the C1-symmetric ligand.

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
The nitro-Mannich (aza-Henry) reaction, in which a nitroalkane and an imine react to form a β-nitroamine, is a versatile tool for target-oriented synthesis. Although the first stereoselective reaction was developed only 20 years ago, and enantioselective and diastereoselective versions for the synthesis of non-racemic compounds soon after, there are nowadays a variety of reliable methods which can be used for the synthesis of APIs and other biologically active substances. Hence many anticancer drugs, antivirals, antimicrobials, enzyme inhibitors and many more substances, containing C-N bonds, have been synthesized using this reaction. Several transition metal complexes and organocatalysts were shown to be compatible with the presence of a wide range of functional groups in these molecules, and very high levels of asymmetric induction have been achieved in some cases. The reaction has also been applied in cascade processes. The structural diversity of the products, ranging from simple heterocycles or azabicycles to complex alkaloids, iminosugars, amino acids or diamino acids and phosphonates, shows the versatility of the nitro-Mannich reaction and its potential for future developments.
