Asymmetric Conjugate Addition of α,α-Disubstituted Aldehydes to Nitroalkenes Organocatalyzed by Chiral Monosalicylamides from trans-Cyclohexane-1,2-Diamines
Primary amine-salicylamides derivedfrom chiral trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamines are used as organocatalysts for the enantioselective conjugateaddition of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes to arylated and heteroarylated nitroalkenes. The reaction is performed in the presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine as an additive in dichloromethane as a solvent at room temperature. The corresponding enantioenriched γ-nitroaldehydes
Magnetic Nanoparticles-Supported Chiral Catalyst with an Imidazolium Ionic Moiety: An Efficient and Recyclable Catalyst for Asymmetric Michael and Aldol Reactions
only in the enantioselective Michael addition but also in the asymmetric aldol condensation to afford good to excellent yields (70–94%) and satisfactory stereoselectivity (ee: 92–100%, dr: 91:9–99:1).The role of the ionic moiety was verified by comparison of the catalyst with an ionic moiety‐free counterpart. The heterogeneous catalyst was easily separated and recovered using external magnetic force

The asymmetric catalytic Michael reaction between isobutyraldehyde and nitroalkanes with chiral primary amine thiourea organocatalysts was described. In the presence of 10 mol % of 1-((1R,2R)-2-amino-1,2-diphenylethyl)-3-benzylthiourea, the desired products were achieved in excellent enantioselectivity (up to>99% ee) with up to 98% yield.

A series of secondary amine–thiourea catalysts derived from l-proline and chiral diamine were prepared and first applied to the Michaeladdition of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes to trans-β-nitroalkenes. Moderate yields (47–75%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee) were obtained for a variety of aryl and heteroaryl nitroalkenes.
In search of diamine analogs of the α,α-diphenyl prolinol privileged chiral organocatalyst. Synthesis of diamine derivatives of α,α-diphenyl-(S)-prolinol and their application as organocatalysts in the asymmetric Michael and Mannich reactions
This paper describes improved reaction conditions for the substitution of the hydroxyl group in (S)-diphenyl(pyrrolidin-2-yl)methanol by the azide group, which was then reduced to the diamine derivative. We examined two protecting groups (N-Bn and N-Boc) on the pyrrolidine nitrogen in order to functionalize the primary amino group into various amide, alkylated amine, sulfonamide, thiourea and triazole derivatives. Notably, carefully controlled conditions were required to generate the desired derivatives from the sterically hindered benzhydrylamine moiety. Unexpectedly, upon removal of the N-protecting group in derivatives containing electrophilic polar double bonds (C=S, C=O) cyclization took place, affording products such as amidines. The target compounds were evaluated as bifunctional organocatalysts in the asymmetric Michael and Mannich addition reactions. (S)-2-(Azidodiphenylmethyl) pyrrolidine (S)-7 was identified as the most efficient organocatalyst among the various diamine derivatives of alpha,alpha-diphenyl-(S)-prolinol prepared in this work.
