Despite of their chemical instability and high reactivity, conjugated nitrosoalkenes are useful intermediates in target-oriented organic synthesis. The present review deals with carbon–carbon bond forming reactions involving Michael addition to α-nitrosoalkenes with a particular focus on recent developments in this methodology and its use in total synthesis.

Asymmetric hydrocarbofunctionalizations of alkenes has emerged as an efficient synthetic strategy for accessing optically active molecules via carbon-carbon bond-forming process from readily available alkenes and carbo-electrophiles. Herein, we present a summary of the efforts from our group to control the regio- and enantioselectivity of hydrocarbofunctionalizations of electron-deficient alkenes with a nickel catalyst and chiral bisoxazolidine ligand. The reaction undergoes electron-reversed hydrocarbofunctionalizations acrylamides with excellent enantioselectivity. This operationally simple protocol enables the asymmetric hydroalkylation, hydrobenzylation and hydropropargylation of acrylamides. This reaction is useful for preparing a wide range of α-branched chiral amides with broad functional group tolerance.
