Many structurally simplified catalysts have been synthesized that mimic the reactivity and efficiency of enzymes. In this context, the numerous transformations catalyzed by the amino acid proline as a catalytic-site mimic helped drive the field of organocatalysis ([ 1 ][1]). Enzyme activity not only relies on the reactive site but also on the structure of the binding pocket that can orient and…
