Abstract
AbstractEnantioselective formal carbo [3+3] cycloaddition reaction of isopropylidenemalononitrile (1) and α,β‐unsaturated aldehyde, catalyzed by diphenylprolinol silyl ether, was developed. The reaction is a domino Michael/aldol‐type reaction, followed by Al2O3‐mediated dehydration to afford 5‐substituted cyclohexene derivatives possessing a methylene‐malononitrile moiety, with excellent enantioselectivity.
