SYNTHESIS 2004, No. 9, pp 1509–1521xx.xx.2004 Advanced online publication: 26.05.2004 DOI: 10.1055/s-2004-822392; Art ID: C0404SS © Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York Abstract: The Michael additions of a number of ketones and aldehydes to alkylidene malonates and nitro olefins were studied. The reactions employ small organic molecules as catalyst under mild reaction conditions and do not require preactivation of the carbonyl donors. These reactions afforded a variety of highly functionalized products in good yields with moderate to good enantioselectivity.

Direct asymmetric catalytic aldol reactions have been successfully performed using aldehydes and unmodified ketones together with commercially available chiral cyclic secondary amines as catalysts. Structure-based catalyst screening identified L-proline and 5,5-dimethyl thiazolidinium-4-carboxylate (DMTC) as the most powerful amino acid catalysts for the reaction of both acyclic and cyclic keto...

The unprecedented application of unmodified aldehydes as nucleophilic donors in direct catalytic asymmetric Mannich-type reactions is disclosed in a full account. Our efforts in broadening the applicability of chiral pyrrolidine-based catalysts in direct asymmetric Mannich-type reactions led to the highly diastereo- and enantioselective and concise synthesis of functionalized alpha- and beta-am...

The asymmetric direct vinylogous Michael reaction of α,β-unsaturated γ-butyrolactams with alkylidene malonates has been developed. Various 5-substituted 3-pyrrolidin-2-ones were obtained in high yields (up to 93%) with excellent stereoselectivities (up to 94% ee, 95 : 5 dr), using a novel bifunctional C(1)-symmetric guanidine organocatalyst embodied a secondary amine subunit.
