title: Recent advances in cooperative ion pairing in asymmetric organocatalysis.
abstract: Over the last decade, with the surge in the development of organocatalysis, many processes involving chiral ion pairs have emerged as powerful tools in the design of new efficient organocatalysts. This tutorial review focuses on the recent evolutions of these organocatalytic systems in which both anionic and cationic parts are working in a cooperative fashion in order to develop unique catalytic processes which outperform the existing approaches. In this respect, chiral ion pairs opened new avenues in the design of bifunctional organocatalysts by means of combinatorial approaches.
