While a variety of well-established methods enable the control of a stereogenic center, a catalytic method for controlling a stereogenic axis in one substrate is typically unavailable for controlling axial chirality in other substrates with a similar structure. Here, the authors report o-amidobiaryl as a flexible platform for chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed atroposelective dynamic kinetic resolution.
