Abstract
A diaminomethyleneindenedione motif can serve as an excellent double hydrogen bonding donor. Bifunctional chiral primary amine 3 bearing a diaminomethyleneindenedione motif is an excellent organocatalyst to promote the asymmetric conjugate additions of various carbonyl compounds to maleimides in high yields with up to 99% ee.
