Building the buildingblocks: A highly enantioselective hydrogenation of β‐aryl‐β‐alkyl disubstituted nitroalkenes 1 has been developed. This method results in enantiomericallypure nitroalkanes 2, which are versatile precursors for chemical synthesis.

We document the use of a new catalyst system for the enantioselectiveconjugatereduction of nitroalkenes utilizing commercially available CuF(2) and the bis-phosphine JOSIPHOS as a ligand. This new protocol not only facilitates ready access to a variety of optically active nitroalkanes, but the results provide also new insight into copper-catalyzed reactions. [reaction: see text]

peptidomimetics. A single new organocatalyst provides high selectivity and substrate generality that is matched only by a combination of metal and organocatalysts. Within organocatalysis, this discovery breaks a 16-year monolithic paradigm, uncovering a powerful new scaffold for enantioselective reduction with behavior that suggests the recognition of a nitroethylene minimal catalaphile.

Trimethylaluminium undergoes enantioselective (ee up to 93%) copper-catalysed Michael addition to various nitroalkenes. Copper thiophenecarboxylate (CuTC) (2 mol %) and 4 mol% of a chiral phosphoramidite ligand are sufficient for a complete and clean reaction. The synthesis of (+)-ibuprofen is described with 82% ee.
