the asymmetric Michael addition of carbonyl compounds to nitroolefins have been synthesised from homoallylamines, which are easily obtained from (R)-glyceraldehyde as a chiral precursor. Under optimal reaction conditions, these bifunctional organocatalysts showed a high catalytic efficiency (almost quantitative yield in most cases) and stereoselectivity in the Michael addition reactions of a variety
This Letter described the synthesis of the first diarylprolinol silyl ether-derived bifunctional thiourea organocatalysts. The catalysts were applied to the asymmetricMichaeladdition of aldehydes to nitroalkenes to give the desired adducts in good yields (up to 99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) and excellent diastereoselectivities (up to 99:1). The spatial placement of C-4 substituent

pyrrolidine-based organocatalysts with a bulky substituent at C2 were synthesized from chiral imines derivedfrom (R)-glyceraldehyde acetonide by diastereoselective allylation followed by a sequential hydrozirconation/iodination reaction. The new compounds were found to be effective organocatalysts for the Michael addition of aldehydes to nitroolefins and enantioselectivities up to 85% ee were achieved
Structure–reactivity relationships of l-proline derived spirolactams and α-methyl prolinamide organocatalysts in the asymmetric Michael addition reaction of aldehydes to nitroolefins
l-Proline derived spirolactams and α-methyl prolinamides act as organocatalysts for the asymmetric conjugate addition of aldehydes to nitroolefins in excellent yields, with good diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity. Furthermore, low catalyst loadings (5 mol %) and a low aldehyde molar excess (1.5 M equiv) were achieved.
A small co-catalyst library of amino thioureas has been established from chiral 1,3-diamines. These bifunctional thioureas can form assemblies with proline to cooperatively catalyze the asymmetric Michael addition of aldehydes to nitroolefins. Both the reaction rate (up to 98% yield for 18 h) and the enantioselectivity (up to 94% ee) were significantly improved upon in less polar solvents. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
