A reductase-mimicking thiourea organocatalyst incorporating a covalently bound NADH analogue: efficient 1,2-diketone reduction with in situ prosthetic group generation and recycling

Abstract

A new class of bifunctional organocatalyst promotes the chemoselective reduction of diketone electrophiles at catalytic loadings in the presence of an inorganic co-reductant.
