The enantioselective reduction of carbon-nitrogen double bonds is a powerful tool for accessing chiral secondary amines. These are important building blocks in the production of many high-added value chemicals, with an estimated 40-45 % of all pharmaceuticals and 20 % of agrochemicals containing a c...
