中文摘要：

近年来,路易斯碱有机小分子催化的亚胺不对称还原反应,因氢源廉价和后处理简单等优点而受到关注.分别介绍了甲酰胺类、吡啶酰胺类、亚磺酰胺类、非酰胺类以及负载型路易斯碱有机小分子催化剂在亚胺不对称还原中的应用,并且对催化剂的结构特点、催化活性及催化机理等方面展开了论述.

英文摘要：

Recently, the asymmetric reduction of imines catalyzed by Lewis-basic organocatalyst has been received much attention as the cheap hydrogen source and the simple post treatment. Based on the different functional groups of organocatalysts, this paper introduced formamide, pyridine amide, sulfonamide, supported and other Lewis basic organocatalysts. The structural characteristics, catalytic activity and mechanism of the Lewis-basic organocatalysts were summarized.
