Abstract

N-Acylketimines are important synthetic building blocks used in the synthesis of a wide variety of functional amino compounds including cyclic and acyclic products. This review focuses on carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions of N-acylketimines to construct amino compounds having tetrasubstituted carbon centers.
