Highly enantio- and diastereoselective Michael addition of cyclohexanone to nitroolefins catalyzed by a chiral glucose-based bifunctional secondary amine-thiourea catalyst
A novel bifunctional thiourea bearing a saccharide-scaffold and a secondary amino group was synthesized, and was proven to be an effective organocatalyst for the asymmetric Michael reaction of cyclohexanone to both aryl and alkyl nitroolefins. The corresponding adducts were obtained with excellent diastereo- (up to >99/1 dr) and enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee).
4-Aminothioureaprolinal dithioacetal 4a is a highlyefficientcatalyst for the asymmetric Michaeladdition of ketones and aldehydes to nitroolefins requiring only 3 mol-% catalyst loading. The reactions proceeded smoothly and gave syn selective adducts with excellent yields (up to 98 % yield), diastereoselectivity (up to >99:1 dr), and enantioselectivity (up to 99 % ee) under solvent free conditions

L‐amino acid as a spacer and a urea‐forming moiety in a polymer‐supported bifunctional urea–primary amine catalyst, based on (1R, 2R)‐(+)‐1,2‐diphenylethylenediamine, significantly improves the catalyst’s activity and stereoselectivity in the asymmetric addition of ketones and aldehydes to nitroolefins. Yields and enantioselectivities, unprecedented for immobilized catalysts, were obtained with such challenging
Some novel prolinal dithioacetal derivatives have been synthesized and applied as the organocatalysts for the direct Michaeladdition of ketones and aldehydes to nitroalkenes. High enantioselectivities and diastereoselectivities have been obtained in both organic and aqueous media (dichloromethane, water, or brine).
