“…During the last decade, CPAs have inspired the synthesis of new and more acidic organocatalysts such as disulfonimides, N -triflylphosphoramides or imidodiphosphorimidates. 3–8 However, the interest in the applications of CPAs in chemistry is still growing and, up to date, they have proved to be highly efficient catalysts for several enantioselective transformations such as S N 1, 9 transfer hydrogenation, 10–13 dearomatization 14 or cycloadition 15 reactions among others. 16–20 Moreover, they have also gained attention in kinetic resolution and deracemization processes, 21 as chiral ligands for metal-catalysed reactions 22,23 or metal-CPA co-catalysis, 24–27 and have promising perspectives as chiral inductors in photocatalytic reactions.…”
