N–Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis has received widespread attention in recent decades. NHCs have been demonstrated as efficient organocatalysts for a wide variety of reactions of aldehydes, functionalised aldehydes, ketenes, carboxylic acids and carboxylic derivatives. This chapter summarises recent developments in the NHC-catalysed enantioselective reactions.
