amine-squaramides catalyzed asymmetric Michael addition reaction of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes to maleimides has been developed. This organocatalytic asymmetric reaction provides easy access to functionalized succinimides with a broad substrate scope. Both enantiomers of desired succinimide derivatives were obtained in good to excellent yields (up to 98%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee)

A novel class of chiral multifunctional thioureas bearing a chiral lipophilic beyerane scaffold and a primary amino group were designed and prepared. The thioureas were proven to be effective for catalyzing the asymmetric Michael addition between isobutyraldehyde and maleimides with only 0.5 mol% catalyst loading, and exhibited double asymmetric induction. Both of the catalysts afforded the corresponding adduct with high to excellent yields (up to 98%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99%). Furthermore, this catalytic system can be used efficiently in large-scale reactions with the yields and enantioselectivities being maintained at the same level. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

Chiral primary amine thiourea promoted highly enantioselective Michael reactions of isobutylaldehyde with maleimides
Chiral primary amine thiourea catalysts were first successfully applied to promote Michael addition of isobutyraldehyde to maleimides. A variety of N-aryl and N-aliphatic maleimides provided Michael adducts in excellent yields (up to 98%) and enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) with 5 mol % catalyst. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
