- yields and high enantioselectivities by the groups of Zhou and Peng, respectively (Scheme 1a). It should be mentioned that the Qing group also reported a method for the synthesis of α-trifluoromethylated α-propargylamines via a Ti-promoted addition reaction between acetylide and chiral CF3-ketimines
