Abstract

Organocatalysis has been established to be a wide-applicable approach from its inception and rediscovery in 2000. Proline was used as a catalyst in aldol condensation and soon after the successful emergence of iminium catalyzed reactions in organic synthesis. The development of new potential catalytic systems is always an essential and uphill task for scientists and researchers. The fundamental organic synthesis majorly deals with metal-based catalysts, whereas there is a constant surge of developing metal-free reaction conditions to make the reactions environmental friendly. For the synthesis of complex organic molecules, reduction and oxidation reactions are always needed, and there are plenty of catalysts available for these reactions. Organocatalysts are also developed and applied for these two elementary reactions. This review focuses on some of the latest developments and applications of organocatalystsin oxidation and reduction reactions in fundamental organic synthesis.

有机催化:在氧化和还原反应中的应用综述

自2000年有机催化被发现以来，它已被确立为一种广泛适用的方法。脯氨酸被用作醛醇缩合的催化剂，并在有机合成中成功地出现了铝催化反应。对于科学家和研究人员来说，开发新的潜在催化体系一直是一项重要而艰巨的任务。基础有机合成主要涉及金属基催化剂，而开发无金属反应条件以使反应对环境友好的呼声不断高涨。复杂有机分子的合成总是需要还原和氧化反应，而这些反应有大量的催化剂可用于这些反应。有机催化剂也被开发和应用于这两种基本反应。本文综述了有机催化剂在基础有机合成中氧化还原反应的最新进展及其应用。

期刊介绍： Current Organocatalysis is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes significant research in all areas of organocatalysis. The journal covers organo homogeneous/heterogeneous catalysis, innovative mechanistic studies and kinetics of organocatalytic processes focusing on practical, theoretical and computational aspects. It also includes potential applications of organocatalysts in the fields of drug discovery, synthesis of novel molecules, synthetic method development, green chemistry and chemoenzymatic reactions. This journal also accepts papers on methods, reagents, and mechanism of a synthetic process and technology pertaining to chemistry. Moreover, this journal features full-length/mini review articles within organocatalysis and synthetic chemistry. It is the premier source of organocatalysis and synthetic methods related information for chemists, biologists and engineers pursuing research in industry and academia.
