Guanidine-catalyzed asymmetric Strecker reaction: modes of activation and origin of stereoselectivity

Density functional theory calculations were employed to study the catalytic mechanism, modes of activation, and origin of enantioselectivity of guanidine-catalyzed asymmetric Strecker reaction of N-benzhydryl imine with hydrogen cyanide. Two types of bifunctional activation mode were identified, nam...
