Abstract
A highly enantioselective Michael addition of nitroacetates to β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoesters was developed by using chiral copper catalysts. The Michael addition products can be obtained in high yields with up to 99 % ee. With these densely functionalized products, the chiral cyclic nitrones, which are important synthetic intermediates, can be obtained in one step.
