Abstract
AbstractAsymmetric aminocatalysis has become one of the most powerful strategies for the transformations of carbonyl substances over the past two decades. Here, we describe the research from our laboratory that significantly expands the horizon of aminocatalysis. It includes the development and application of cinchona‐based primary amines, fruitful reactions based on HOMO‐raising strategy, and the disclosure of amine/thiol double activation catalysis. What is the most favorite and original chemistry developed in your research group?Cinchona‐based primary amine catalysts and trienamine activation mode.How do you get into this specific field? Could you please share some experiences with our readers?I got to know asymmetric catalysis when I began to pursue my PhD study, and realized the importance and beauty of chiral substances. My key experiences in research are: try something different, and be sensitive to the difference.How do you supervise your students?Always keep honest, and try to understand what you are doing.What are your hobbies?Gardening and badminton.How do you keep balance between research and family?Keep communicating with family members.Who influences you mostly in your life?My PhD director Prof. Yao‐Zhong Jiang.
