squaramide-based organocatalysts were facilely synthesized and applied as hydrogen bonding organocatalysts in the enantioselectiveMichaeladdition of nitroalkanes to chalcones. These organocatalysts promoted the Michaeladdition with low catalyst loading under high temperature (80 °C), affording the desired R or S enantiomers of the products flexibly in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities (93−96%
