Abstract
Michael-aldol domino reactions are powerful tools for rapidly assembling carbocyclic scaffolds. We herein disclose a base-catalyzed Michael-aldol domino reaction of trisubstituted Michael acceptors with β-keto ester nucleophiles. The cyclohexanone products are obtained in excellent diastereoselectivity (up to >20:1 dr) and good yields (up to 84%). An attractive practical consideration is that pure products are isolated directly via filtration of the unpurified reaction mixtures. Further functionalization of the cyclohexanones is achieved without perturbation of stereocenters installed through the preceding annulation.
