Stereo-defined vicinal diamines are valuable building blocks and widespread functional units in bioactive compounds. The use of continuous-flow chemistry is particularly attractive for the preparative synthesis of a wide range of molecules, and recently the group of Professor Maurizio Benaglia (Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy) described an efficient stereoselective approach to 1,2-diamino derivatives using this technology.
