Abstract
A quadruple cascade reaction, comprising iminium, enamine–copper, iminium, and enamine catalysis, was investigated. This reaction afforded highly optically active hexasubstituted cyclohexanes from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, nitromethane, and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yloxy (TEMPO). To enhance the stereoselectivity of the organocatalytic cyclization, TEMPO was incorporated into the cyclohexane skeleton using copper catalysts.
