Abstract

A stereoselective Michael addition of homoenolate, generated from enals by nucleophilic heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis, to beta-nitrostyrenes is reported for the first time. The products of this reaction obtained in good yields are of potential value in the synthesis of a variety of acyclic and heterocyclic compounds.
