Enantioselective Michael addition of malononitrile to chalcones catalyzed by a simple quinine–Al(OiPr)3 complex: a simple method for the synthesis of a chiral 4H-pyran derivative
Enantioselective Michael addition of malononitrile to chalcones was catalyzed by a simple quinine and Al(O(i)Pr)(3) complex and products were obtained in good ee as well as high yields, which facilitated the asymmetric synthesis of a biologicallyactive 4H-pyran compound.

approach for asymmetric organocatalysed Michaeladdition of malononitrile to chalcones. The catalytic activity was greatly enhanced, compared with the conventional analogue. Furthermore, the enantioselectivity could also be significantly improved for all substrates.Graphical AbstractNatural quinine was firstly immobilized on mesoporous SBA-15 with short mesochannels for the heterogeneous asymmetric Michael

Peptides of the type H-Pro-Pro-Xaa-NH2 were evaluated as catalysts for conjugate additionreactions of acetophenones to cyanoolefins. Tripeptide H- d -Pro-Pro-Glu-NH2 with a carboxylic acid moiety in the side chain of Xaa was identified as a catalyst that provides γ,γ-dicyanoacetophenones in yields of up to 90% and stereoselectivies of up to 88:12 er.

A convenient organocatalyticenantioselective decarboxylative Michaeladdition of β‐keto acids to dicyanoolefins and disulfonylolefins is realized. In the presence of saccharide‐derived chiral amino thioureas, the reaction proceeded smoothly to afford a wide range of the Michael adducts in 62–99% yield with 70–94% ee. Moreover, one of the chiral adducts obtained could be readily converted into the
