Enantioselective catalysis of reactions between nucleophiles and electrophiles is of synthetic interest since such processes can provide practical access to valuable chiral materials. Although effective catalysts for enantioselective nucleophilic additions to simple electrophiles such as carbonyl compounds, 1 imines, 2 and epoxides3 have been developed over the past decade, in many cases a detailed mechanistic understanding of how these systems function is lacking. As a result, the ability to rationally develop new catalysts or improve existing ones remains limited.
