We report a highly efficient asymmetric Michael addition of dithiomalonates to trans-β-nitroolefins catalyzed by versatile cinchona-based bifunctional thioureas, which provides the corresponding adducts in high yields (up to 92%) and with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) under mild conditions. Replacement of the catalyst with its pseudo-enantiomer gives the Michael adducts with opposite configuration in similar yields and enantioselectivities.

A rosin-derived bifunctional squaramide catalyzed asymmetric Michael addition of malononitrile with chalcones was discovered. This protocol provides a methodology for the facile synthesis of chiral γ-cyano carbonyl compounds in high yields and enantioselectivities (up to 99% yield and 90% ee) with a lower catalyst loading (0.3 mol%). The predominant R-configured adducts were obtained by this organocatalystic reaction, according to the experimental findings.

A facile bisphosphorylation of amino-2-en-1-ones with trialkyl phosphites mediated by iron is developed. The reaction is considered to go through two Michael addition progresses. A variety of amino-2-en-1-ones are bisphosphorylated in high yields with functional group tolerance. In addition, the protocol of introduction of two different phosphates into one molecule is successful through a cascade reaction.

AbstractA new tertiary amine-squaramide organocatalyst has been developed and applied to the asymmetric Michael addition of cyclic diketones to β,γ-unsaturated α-keto esters. The catalyst system performed well with a low catalyst loading of 1 mol% under mild reaction conditions. A series of synthetically and pharmaceutically useful chiral bicyclic compounds were obtained in high yields (up to 97%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99 % ee). Furthermore, this catalytic system can be used efficiently in large-scale reactions with the yields and enantioselectivities being maintained.

A facile one-pot synthesis of trifluoromethylated pyrimidines has been achieved by the treatment of fluorinated 2-bromoenones with aryl- and alkylamidines. The assembly of pyrimidine core proceeds by the cascade reactions via aza-Michael addition–intramolecular cyclization–dehydrohalogenation/dehydration sequence. This strategy is featured by high selectivity and mild reaction conditions giving the target heterocycles in high yields (up to 99%). The unique influence of trifluoromethyl group on the reaction path is demonstrated.
