Abstract
A highly diastereoselective and enantioselective Michael addition of cyclohexanone, acetone and other ketones to nitroolefins was developed by the use of an amine organocatalyst based on bispidine. Additionally, a theoretical study of transition structures revealed that this bispidineβbased primaryβsecondary amine catalyst could serve through an enamine intermediate and Hβbond interaction, which was important for the reactivity and selectivity of this reaction.
