The specific case of the synthesis of chiral amines, which are essential building blocks for the pharmaceutical industry , is a prominent illustration of this issue. Industrially, the synthesis of chiral amines is operated via multi-step batch processes which usually feature low overall yield, produce large amounts of waste, and are energy-intensive. They are typically catalysed by organometallic homogeneous catalysts based on toxic and depleted heavy metals (Ru, Rh, Pd) which usually operate at relatively high temperature, are not 100% enantioselective, and are difficult to recover . In this context, it is of particular interest to develop more sustainable chiral amines synthesis methods .
