New Approaches to Nitrogen Containing Heterocycles: Enantioselective Organocatalyzed Synthesis of Dihydropyridines (DHP's), Quinolizidine Derivatives and Dihydropyrimidines (DHPM's)

Nitrogen-containing heterocycles, and more specifically the chiral ones, possess various biological and pharmaceutical properties. Among the approaches to these compounds, the organocatalyzed asymmetric multicomponent reaction has emerged as a powerful tool. This review will focus on the later development to chiral dihydropyridines, dihydropyrimidines and quinolizidines via asymmetric organocatalyzed synthesis....
