Abstract

Asymmetric A3 coupling has emerged as an important class of reactions to synthesise chiral propargylamines. In this tutorial review, an up to date progress of this reaction, with significant recent advancements in terms of ligand development, is presented. Applications of asymmetric A3 coupling in natural product synthesis and in tandem processes are also discussed.
