Abstract

Highly enantioselective Michael addition reactions of diethyl malonate to various chalcones have been achieved under mild chiral multisite phase-transfer reaction conditions by the successful utilization of 2,4,6-(triscinchoniummethyl)phenyl-1,3,5-triazines as new chiral quaternary ammonium catalysts. This simple asymmetric Michael addition process was found to be quite effective and to obtain Michael adducts with very good yields and enantiomeric excesses.
