Organocatalytic asymmetric N-sulfonyl amide C-N bond activation to access axially chiral biaryl amino acids
Asymmetric activation of amide bonds remains a challenge due to the high stability of amide linkages. Here, the authors show an organocatalytic asymmetric C-N bond cleavage of N-sulfonyl biaryl lactams under mild conditions, to access axially chiral biaryl amino acids.
