The 1,2-aminoindanol scaffold has been found to be very efficient, enhancing the enantioselectivity when present in organocatalysts. This may be explained by its ability to induce a bifunctional activation of the substrates involved in the reaction. Thus, it is easy to find hydrogen-bonding organocatalysts ((thio)ureas, squaramides, quinolinium thioamide, etc.) in the literature containing this favored structural core. They have been successfully employed in reactions such as Friedel-Crafts alkylation, Michael addition, Diels-Alder and aza-Henry reactions. However, the 1,2-aminoindanol core incorporated into proline derivatives has been scarcely explored. Herein, the most representative and illustrative examples are compiled and this review will be mainly focused on the cases where the aminoindanol moiety confers bifunctionality to the organocatalysts.

This paper thoroughly explores the formation of Schiff bases derived from salicylaldehydes and a conformationally restricted amino alcohol (1-amino-2-indanol), as well as the generation of 1,3-oxazolidines, a key heterocyclic core present in numerous bioactive compounds. We provide enough evidences, both experimental-including crystallographic analyses and DFT-based calculations on imine/enamine tautomerism in the solid state and solution. In the course of imine formation, a pentacyclic oxazolidine-oxazine structure could be isolated with complete stereocontrol, whose configuration has been determined by merging theory and experiment.

The first asymmetric total synthesis of an indole alkaloid, (-)-20-epiuleine, containing the 2,3,4-trisubstituted piperidine core, was achieved using a stereocontrolled one-pot asymmetric 6π-azaelectrocyclization followed by a stereoselective 1,4-addition reaction of the unsaturated ester with a Grignard reagent resulting from the novel neighboring participation of the hydroxyl group in cis-aminoindanol as a chiral nitrogen source.

Two stereoselective routes to a series of diastereomeric inhibitors of HIV protease, monofluorinated analogues of the Merck HIV protease inhibitor indinavir, are described. The two routes feature stereoselective construction of the fluorinated core subunits by asymmetric alkylation reactions. The first-generation syntheses were based on the conjugate addition of the lithium enolate derived from pseudoephedrine alpha-fluoroacetamide to nitroalkene 12, a modestly diastereoselective transformation.
