The present invention provides moisture-curable compositions comprising an amino ester catalyst as an alternative to organotin catalysts. In particular, the present invention provides a condensation catalyst comprising a secondary amine, a tertiary amine, a substituted amine (e.g., an amino ester compound), or a combination of two or more thereof and optionally one or more aminosilanes or siloxanes. Further, the compositions employing amino esters allow for tuning or adjusting the cure characteristics of the compositions by the addition of other components such as adhesion promoters or acidic compounds, and provides good adhesion and storage stability.
