摘要: Abstract Bifunctional chiral primary amine 8 containing an (S,S)-trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine scaffold and a 2-benzimidazole unit is used as general organocatalyst for the Michael addition of α,α-branched aldehydes to nitroalkenes maleimides. The reactions take place, with 20 mol % catalyst in dichloromethane at rt 15 mol % loading toluene 10 °C maleimides, good yields enantioselectivities. DFT calculations demonstrate bifunctional character this activating aldehyde by enamine formation acceptor double hydrogen bonding.
