Abstract
This review deals with the asymmetric alkynylation of imines (and iminium ions) to give chiral nonracemic propargylamines. Diastereoselective procedures involved the addition of metal alkynylides to chiral nonracemic imines derived from chiral amines or chiral carbonyl compounds. Enantioselective non-catalytic procedures have been achieved with the use of stoichiometric additives or alkynylboron reagents. Finally, catalytic addition of terminal alkynes or zinc acetylides has been carried out in the presence of chiral metal complexes, especially copper complexes as catalysts.

Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
