In the end of the 20th century, due to various advantages of organocatalysis including environmental friendliness, operational simplicity, mild reaction conditions, easy recovery etc., had led to its recognition as a powerful strategy for the establishment of practical organic synthetic methods. Over the two decades since then, tremendous effort has been devoted to the design of novel high-performance organocatalysts to realize unprecedented reactions including asymmetric transformations. In this review, our recent results on the rational design of various types of chiral phase-transfer catalysts with privileged structures, and their successful application to a wide variety of asymmetric transformations are described.

具有特权结构的高性能手性相转移催化剂的设计。

在20世纪末，由于有机催化的各种优点，包括环境友好，操作简便，反应条件温和，易于回收等，已使其被公认为建立实用的有机合成方法的有力策略。从那以后的二十年中，为设计新型高性能有机催化剂付出了巨大的努力，以实现前所未有的反应，包括不对称转化。在这篇综述中，描述了我们对具有特权结构的各种类型手性相转移催化剂的合理设计的最新结果，以及它们在各种不对称转化中的成功应用。
