α-Amino ketones are useful compounds because of their synthetic utility and bioactivities. After observing the ability of N,N′-dipyridin-2-yl aminals to form imines in situ, the synthesis of α-amino ketonesusing N,N′-dipyridin-2-yl aminals was proposed. Through the NHC-catalyzed aza-benzoin reaction between aromatic/aliphatic aldehydes and N,N′-dipyridin-2-yl aminals, α-amino ketones, including aromatic
