Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research program aims at the development of efficient catalytic processes for the production of high-value chemicals via an ingenious design of catalyst system. Catalytic asymmetric carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions utilizing 7-azaindoline amides has reached its completion, incorporating carbon-, nitrogen-, oxygen-, sulfur-, halogen-functionalized amides at alpha-position to provide a wide range of acyclic chiral building blocks in a highly diastereo- and enantioselective fashion. As for DATB catalysis for efficient amide production from carboxylic acids and amines, mechanistic details have been revealed by systematic kinetic and DFT studies. Further investigation identified a readily accessible new catalyst derivative that is synthesized from inexpensive materials in a 3-step column free process, which is now commercial available on a worldwide basis.
