dioxinone-derived silyl ether to nitroalkenes is reported. The conjugateaddition is performed in absence of any catalyst under solvent-free conditions, proceeding with satisfactory efficiency with variously substituted nitroalkenes.Moreover, the first organocatalyzed Mukaiyama-Michael vinylogous reaction of trimethylsilyloxyfuran to nitroalkenes is described.The reaction is promoted by Brønsted acids under

furan-2(5H)-one to (E)-(2-nitrovinyl)benzene catalyzed by a dinuclear Zn-complex. The relative configurations of the diastereomeric products were assigned by comparing NMR experimental chemicalshift data with those computed by DFT methods. Corrected mean absolute error (CMAE) and CP3 analyses were used to compare the data sets. The absolute configuration of each diastereomer was initially assigned by

Here, we show that graphite-based catalysts, mainly graphite oxide (GO) and exfoliated GO, are effective recyclable catalysts for a relevant stereoselective Mukaiyama-Michael addition, outperforming currently available catalysts. Moreover, the graphite-based catalysts described here invert the diastereoselectivity relative to that observed with known catalysts, with the unprecedented large prevalence of the anti diastereoisomer. This inverted diastereoselectivity is increased when the catalyst concentration is reduced and after catalyst recycling. Density functional theory calculations suggest that the selectivity is determined by two types of supramolecular interactions operating between the catalyst and the substrates at the diastereoselectivity-determining transition state, specifically, the pi-stacking of beta-nitrostyrene with graphite and the van der Waals interaction between the SiMe3 group of the silyl ether and the graphite.
