Abstract
An efficient asymmetric synthesis of N-formylpiperidines via an organocatalytic Michael-aza-Henry-hemiaminalization reaction cascade of an aldehyde, a nitroalkene, and an N-arylideneformamide is reported. The reaction is triggered by diphenylprolinol trimethylsilyl ether and creates two C–C and one C–N bonds leading to the formation of highly enantio-enriched N-formylpiperidines with five contiguous chiral centers in a one-pot operation.
