Abstract

Financial support was provided by the DFG (SPP1179), the Fonds der Chemischen Industrie (Dozentenstipendium to M. C.), the Alexander von Humboldt Stiftung (postdoctoral fellowship to E. M.-L.), the Fundación Aragón I + D(permanent contract to R. P. H.), Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas CSIC (PIE 200880I260), the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (MICINN, CTQ2009-09028) and the Aragón Government (PI064/09) (R. P. H.).

This review covers the most recent applications of organocatalysis in the synthesis of natural products and non-natural biologically active molecules. Our aim is to showcase how organocatalytic reactions have overcome some of their teething problems and how they frequently offer very practical solutions to long-standing synthetic challenges. 161 references are cited.
