Abstract
The applications of Morita–Baylis–Hillman (MBH) and Rauhut–Currier (RC) adducts of nitroalkenes in the synthesis of various carbo- and heterocycles are summarized in this review. In recent years, the MBH adducts and their derivatives such as acetates and bromides have served as efficient synthons for the synthesis of bioactive compounds including natural products. The close proximity of various functional groups makes the MBH and RC adducts extremely valuable substrates in multicomponent and cascade reactions, including annulations, organocatalysis, and kinetic resolution, to name a few.
