By sweeping back with the leg against the inside of the attacker’s left thigh and pulling forward with the sleeve, it’s possible to pitch an attacker forward with great power.

Full list
Here is a list of most of the techniques you'll need to know for Jitsu and at what level you'll meet them. The list is not completely definitive because modern Judo is creating many more throws, some of which Jitsuka are adapting for their own use.

Lovely technique when done properly. Known as the inner thigh (obvious) the tori must remember to keep their sweeping leg up for about 2-3 seconds, otherwise they become entangled with the uke and lose their balance.
