Abstract
An efficient asymmetric Michael addition of cyclic ketones to β-nitrostyrenes using secondary diamine as an organocatalyst derived from l-proline and (R)-α-methylbenzyl amine has been described. This pyrrolidine based catalyst 1 was found to be very effective to synthesize various γ-nitrocarbonyl compounds in good yield (up to 81%) with excellent stereoselectivity (up to >99:1 dr and >99% ee).
