Enantioselective synthesis of D-α-amino amides from aliphatic aldehydes
TL;DR: In this article, a cinchona alkaloid-catalyzed aza-Henry reaction using bromonitromethane is described, and the integration of its product with Umpolung amide synthesis.
On-Demand Complex Peptide Synthesis: An Aspirational (and Elusive?) Goal for Peptide Synthesis.
TL;DR: The purpose of this Perspective is to appraise synthetic access to complex peptides, particularly those containing unnatural α-amino amides, as one of the most practiced forms of synthetic chemistry by chemists and non-chemists alike.

Enantioselective Addition of Bromonitromethane to Aliphatic N-Boc Aldimines Using a Homogeneous Bifunctional Chiral Organocatalyst.
TL;DR: This report details the enantioselective synthesis of β-amino-α-bromo nitroalkanes with β-alkyl substituents, using homogeneous catalysis to prepare either antipode, using a bifunctional Brønsted base/acid catalyst.
Enantioselective Synthesis of D‐α‐Amino Amides from Aliphatic Aldehydes.
TL;DR: In this article, the cinchona alkaloid-catalyzed aza-Henry reaction using bromonitromethane was used for umpolung amide synthesis.
