Sekikawa, Tohru published the artcileCatalytic Activity of epi-Quinine-Derived 3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)benzamide in Asymmetric Nitro-Michael Reaction of Furanones, SDS of cas: 5153-73-1, the publication is Organic Letters (2015), 17(12), 3026-3029, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
High catalytic activity of novel epi-quinine-derived 3,5-bis(CF3)benzamide in the asym. nitro-Michael reaction is described. With 0.1-5 mol % loadings of this catalyst, the addition of 5-substituted 2(3-H)-furanones to a wide range of nitroalkenes involving challenging substrates, β-alkylnitroalkenes, smoothly proceeded, giving the Michael adducts e. g., I, in high yields (>90%) with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity (>98:2 dr, syn major; 88-98% ee). DFT calculation was carried out to account for the high catalytic activity.
