Aminocatalyzed reactions of aldehydes with chiral nitroalkenes

Chiral nitroalkenes are used for the first time in Michael additions of aldehydes, catalyzed by pyrrolidine derivatives. They yield the same major stereoisomer with either (S)-proline or (R)-proline, but this asymmetric induction does not overcome the effect of sterically more congested catalysts. N...

Sumario:Chiral nitroalkenes are used for the first time in Michael additions of aldehydes, catalyzed by pyrrolidine derivatives. They yield the same major stereoisomer with either (S)-proline or (R)-proline, but this asymmetric induction does not overcome the effect of sterically more congested catalysts. Nitrocyclobutane intermediates are often formed, which are more stable than those from (E)-1-nitro-2-phenylethene. The cyclobutanes and final products were characterized by 2D NMR and chemical correlations
