  • Catalysts and methods for enantioselective conjugate addition of amines to unsaturated electrophiles
    Patent number: 11840514
    Abstract: Disclosed are complexes and methods of using the complexes as catalysts for addition of amines to unsaturated electrophiles, as well as novel compounds produced by the disclosed complexes and methods. The disclosed methods may utilize the disclosed complexes as catalysts for adding unprotected primary amines and secondary amines to unsaturated electrophiles in an enantioselective manner to produce novel compounds which may include amino substituted succinimide compounds.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 21, 2020
    Date of Patent: December 12, 2023
    Assignee: Northwestern University
    Inventors: Karl A. Scheidt, Brice Uno
