We introduce a new strategy for synthesis of chiral amines: couplings of α-aminoalkyl nucleophiles generated by enantioselective migratory insertion of 2-azadienes to a Cu-H. In this report, we demonstrate its application in catalytic reductive coupling of 2-azadienes and ketones to furnish 1,2-amino tertiary alcohols with vicinal stereogenic centers.

Carboranyl amines are distinct from typical organic amines. Due to the electronic influence of the carborane cage, they have low nucleophilicity and are reluctant to alkylate. Moreover, asymmetric synthesis of chiral carboranes is still in its infancy.

Efficient enantioselective separation is a critical process in pharmaceutical and chemical industries for the production of chiral compounds. Herein, we developed a novel approach for the efficient enantioselective separation of primary amines using supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) with a commercially available SFC column, Cel1. The key factors of separation, including cosolvent ratios, total cosolvent percentages, and temperature, were systematically assessed in this study.

Background: Isotopologues resulting from the labelling of molecules with deuterium have attracted interest due to the isotope effect observed in chemistry and biosciences. Isotope effect may also play out in noncovalent interactions and mechanisms leading to intermolecular recognition. In chromatography, differences in retention time between isotopologues, as well as between isotopomers have been observed resulting in two different elution sequences (isotope effects): the normal isotope effect when heavier isotopologues retain longer than lighter analogues, and the inverse isotope effect featuring the opposite elution order.

Background: The metal organic cages (MOCs) are an emerging type of porous material that has attracted considerable research interest due to their unique properties, including good stability and well-defined intrinsic cavities. The chiral MOCs with porous structures have broad application prospects in enantiomeric recognition and separation. However, there are almost no relevant reports on chiral MOCs as chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for enantioseparation by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
