Reaction

1. 2nd Generation Maruoka chiral phase transfer catalyst, for enantioselective alkylation of α-amino acid derivatives, that is easily recovered for recycle by extraction with fluorous solvent.
2. Catalyst for asymmetric conjugate addition of α-substituted-α-cyanoacetates to α,β-unsaturated acetylenic esters.
3. Phase transfer catalyzed enantioselective α-alkylation.
4. Asymmetric amination of β-keto esters.
5. Diastereo- and enantioselective conjugate addition of α-substituted nitroacetates to maleimides.
6. Cyclization of β-alkynyl hydrazines.
