摘要
Kinetic investigations show that the proline-mediated α-amination of aldehydes exhibits autoinductive rate behavior and amplification of product enantiomeric excess. Further experiments highlight the role of product, offering suggestions for the design of catalysts of improved efficiency for such transformations. The unusual characteristics exhibited by these reactions implicate amino acid catalysis in rationalizations of the origin of biological homochirality. Copyright © 2003 American Chemical Society.
