A highly efficient three-component coupling reaction between thioformamides and
organolithium and Grignard reagents was developed. The generality of the process
has been demonstrated by using various combinations of reactants and reagents.

A new type of C2-symmetric chiral diene ligand was applied
successfully in the Rh-catalyzed asymmetric arylation of N-tosylarylimines
with arylboronic acids to give a broad range of highly enantiomerically enriched
diarylmethylamines as well as 3-aryl substituted phthalimidines.

The use of a new C2-symmetric diene ligand (1R,4R)-2,5-diphenylbicyclo[2.2.2]octa-2,5-diene
(Ph-bod*) for the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric arylation of N-tosylarylimines
with arylboroxines allowed asymmetric synthesis of diarylmethylamines with
high enantioselectivity.

The asymmetric arylation of N-tosylarylimines with arylboronic acids
was realized by using rhodium/(S)-ShiP as catalyst in aqueous toluene
to give diarylmethylamines in good yields and enantioselectivities.

The asymmetric synthesis of diarylmethyl amines was realized by
rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric addition of aryl titanium reagents to
N-alkylidene sulfonamides.

A selective rhodium/phosphoramidite-catalyzed synthesis of diarylmethyl
amines gave high enantioselectivities and high yields. The small and cheap
N,N-dimethylsulfamoyl protecting group was easily removed by a
microwave-assisted transamination.
