Abstract Chiral organobases occupy a significant position in asymmetric organocatalysis. The general types of chiral organobases include tertiary amines, amidines, guanidines, cyclopropenimines, and iminophosphoranes, etc. These organobases are demonstrated to be effective organocatalysts to promote divers kinds of base-initiated reactions in excellent yields and stereoselectivities. In previous reports, several groups have summarized each kind of chiral organobases in different reviews. To the aim of understanding the whole of them in one review, herein, we provide a brief introduction of these chiral organobases in asymmetric catalysis.
