Pyrrolidine-thioxotetrahydropyrimidinone as an efficient organocatalyst for the enantioselective Michael addition of cyclic ketones to nitrodienes
摘要:
Among the various Michael additions, the enantioselective reaction between cyclic ketones and nitrodienes has received little attention in comparison to the corresponding reaction with nitroolefins. A bifunctional organocatalyst consisting of the pyrrolidine moiety and a thioxotetrahydropyrimidinone ring successfully catalyzed this asymmetric transformation. The products of the reaction between various ketones and nitrodienes were obtained in high yields (up to 96%) with excellent diastereo- (up to >98:2 dr) and enantioselectivities (up to 99:1% er).

The highly enantioselective Michael addition of ketones to nitrodienes catalyzed by the efficient organocatalyst system of pyrrolidinyl-thioimidazole and chiral thioureido acid
The highlyenantioselectiveMichaeladdition reaction of ketones to nitrodienes was promoted efficiently by the accessible and fine-tunable organocatalytic system of pyrrolidinyl-thioimidazole and chiral thioureido acid. The corresponding adducts were afforded in good yields with high diastereoselectivities (up to 99 : 1) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee).
