Asymmetric reductive amination of poorly nucleophilic sulfonamides was realized in the presence of nickel catalysts and titanium alkoxide. A wide range of ketones, including enolizable ketones and some biaryl ones, were converted into sulfonamides in excellent enantiomeric excess. The cyclization of sulfamates and intermolecular reductive amination of a diarylphosphinamide were also successful. Formic acid was used as a safe and economic surrogate of high-pressure hydrogen gas.

Chiral amines bearing a stereocenter in the α position are ubiquitous compounds with many applications in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors, as well as in catalysis. Catalytic asymmetric Mannich additions represent a valuable method to access such compounds in enantioenriched form. This work reports the first enantio- and diastereoselective addition of commercially available p-toluenesulfonylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) to ketimines, affording 2-imidazolines bearing two contiguous stereocenters, one of which is fully-substituted, with high yields and excellent stereocontrol. The reaction, catalyzed by silver oxide and a dihydroquinine-derived N,P-ligand, is broad in scope, operationally simple, and scalable. Derivatization of the products provides enantioenriched vicinal diamines, precursors to NHC ligands and sp3-rich heterocyclic scaffolds. Computations are used to understand catalysis and rationalize stereoselectivity.

The enantioselective phospha-Mannich reaction of diethyl phosphite to unactivated N-DPP-protected ketimines catalyzed by a bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP) superbase organocatalyst is described. The reaction is applicable to ketimines bearing electron
