The origin of enantioselectivity in asymmetric catalysis is often built around the differential steric interaction in the enantiocontrolling transition states (TSs). Closer perusal of enantiocontrolling TSs in an increasingly diverse...

A general and efficient method for the synthesis of highly enantiopure 4-amino-1,2,3,4-tetradydropyridine derivatives based on chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed intramolecular nucleophilic addition of tertiary enamides to imines has been developed. We have also demonstrated a substrate engineering strategy to significantly improve the enantioselectivity of asymmetric catalysis

In recent years, the synthesis of axially chiral compounds has received considerable attention due to their extensive application as biologically active compounds in medicinal chemistry and as chiral ligands in asymmetric catalysis. Chiral phosphoric acids are recognized as efficient organocatalysts for a variety of enantioselective transformations. In this review, we summarize the recent development of chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed synthesis of a wide range of axially chiral biaryls, heterobiaryls, vinylarenes, N-arylamines, spiranes, and allenes with high efficiency and excellent stereoselectivity.

AbstractDescription of molecular stereostructure is critical for the machine learning prediction of asymmetric catalysis. Herein we report a spherical projection descriptor of molecular stereostructure (SPMS), which allows precise representation of the molecular van der Waals (vdW) surface. The key features of SPMS descriptor are presented using the examples of chiral phosphoric acid, and the machine learning application is demonstrated in Denmark’s dataset of asymmetric thiol addition to N-acylimines. In addition, SPMS descriptor also offers a color-coded diagram that provides straightforward chemical interpretation of the steric environment.
