Abstract

AbstractAn enantioselective Diels–Alder reaction of 3-nitrocoumarins has been developed. A tryptophan-derived C 1-symmetric organoammonium thiourea catalyst promoted the reaction of 3-nitrocoumarins with Danishefsky’s diene to give the corresponding adducts with good enantioselectivity (up to 94% ee). One of the resulting adducts was converted into a chiral carbocyclic quaternary β-amino alcohol.
