The hydroxyphenyl chiral ketone, (S)-3, reacts with D-amino acids bearing hydrophobic side chains exclusively over the L-amino acids in a two-phase liquid-liquid extraction, and thus acts as a highly stereoselective extractant. Calculations for the energy-minimized structures for the imine diastereomers and the comparison of the selectivities with other phenyl ketones, (S)-4 and (S)-5, demonstrate that the hydrogen bond between the carboxylate group and the phenolic hydroxyl group contributes to the remarkable enantioselectivities. The multiple hydrogen bonds present in the imine of (S)-3 reinforce the rigidity, and results in the difference between the stabilities of the imine diastereomers. The imine could be hydrolyzed in methanolic HCl solution, and the extraction of the evaporated residues revived the organic layer of (S)-3, which could enter into a new extractive cycle and leaves the D-amino acid with enantiomeric excess (ee) values of over 97 % in the aqueous layer.

An enantioselective (4 + 2) reaction between 1,3-dienes and -cyano imines has been developed under Pd(0) catalysis, proceeding through a cascade vinylogous addition and intramolecular allylic amination sequence. 2,6--Disubstituted-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridines were furnished as single diastereomers in moderate to good yields and enantiocontrol. Moreover, a more challenging three-component (2 + 2 + 2) annulation of 1,3-dienes, -cyano imines, and activated alkenes was efficiently realized to afford piperidines with high structural complexity, albeit with moderate enantioselectivity.

Aliphatic diamines [(HN(CH)NHR) () = 2: R = H (), R = CH (), R = CH (), = 3, R = H () or -2-(aminomethyl)piperidine ()] react with [IrH(Cl){(PPh(-CHCO))H}] in THF to afford ketoimine complexes [IrH(Cl){(PPh(-CHCO))(PPh(-CHCN(CH)NHR))H}] (-) or [IrH(Cl){(PPh(-CHCO))(PPh(-CHCNCH(CHNH)))H}] (), containing a bridging N-H···O hydrogen bond and a dangling amine. Complex consists of an almost equimolar mixture of two diastereomers. In protic solvents, the dangling amine in complexes displaces chloride to afford cationic acyl-iminium compounds, [IrH(PPh(-CHCO))(PPh(-CHCNH(CH)NHR))]X (-, X = Cl) or [IrH(PPh(-CHCO))(PPh(-CHCNHCH(CHNH)))]Cl () and (-, X = ClO), with new hemilabile terdentate PCN ligands adopting a facial disposition.

The 10 glyphaeaside alkaloids isolated from the roots of were originally purported as piperidine-based 1--alkylated iminosugars, with the A-, B-, and C-type glyphaeasides bearing l-DFJ, DGJ, and DNJ ring configurations, respectively. Subsequent investigations have revealed glyphaeaside C as being a pyrrolidine-based iminosugar with a DMDP ring configuration via total synthesis of the revised structure. In this work, side chain diastereomers of the originally purported structure of glyphaeaside C () and two related α-1--alkylated DNJ derivatives were synthesized from a common precursor, which was prepared in turn via stereoselective Grignard addition to a protected d-glycosylamine, followed by a reductive amination-cyclization sequence.

Since the first reports of the reaction of imines and cyclic anhydrides by Castagnoli and Cushman, this procedure has been applied to the synthesis of a variety of lactams, some of them with important synthetic or biological interest. The scope of the reaction has been extended to the use of various Schiff bases and anhydrides as well as to different types of precursors for these reagents. In recent years, important advances have been made in understanding the mechanism of the reaction, which has historically been quite controversial.

The synthesis of 7-membered carbocyclic β-fluoroamines is accomplished by a combination of the enantioselective aza-Henry reaction of aliphatic -Boc imines and ring-closing metathesis. Use of reductive denitration gives both diastereomers of the β-fluoro amine carbocycle, each with high enantiomeric excess.
