Introduction to the special column on organocatalysis
Organocatalysis has become one of the most important frontiers in exploratory organic synthetic research.Because of its connection with reduced energy consumption,greenhouse gas emissions,and waste generation,organocatalysis is increasingly used in pharmaceutical,chemical,food,energy,and agricultural industries.In the past decade,organocatalysis has emerged as a mature strategy for addressing modern day challenges in chemistry.It has become widely appreciated that small molecule organic catalysts can hold a wide range of practical advantages relative to macromolecular or precious metal catalysts,including air and water stability,low cost,availability from renewable resources,and relative nontoxicity.However,one of the biggest challenges of organocatalysis is controlling the selectivity.This special column on organocatalysis contains 11 articles which can be broadly grouped into three categories,including developing of catalysts,exploring catalysis for synthesis,investigatory studies mechanistic and selectivity on catalysis.
