Abstract

In this chapter attention is given to the use of amino-cinchonas and their derivatives (including quaternary ammonium salts) for a whole host of very interesting chemical transformations. The focus is on the stereoselective (enantioselective and diastereoselective) of the target compounds. Much attention is given to the synthesis of medicinal compounds, and other biologically active compounds, as well as the use of sequential catalytic protocols to form the compounds in a highly sustainable manner. Enabling technologies such as flow-chemistry and catalyst immobilization are also reviewed. The inexhaustible array of product types accessed by these catalysts is clearly highlighted.
