Asymmetric organocatalytic sequential Michael-cyclization of functionalized nitroalkanes to 2-hydroxycinnamaldehydes: synthesis of benzofused dioxa[3.3.1] and oxa[4.3.1] methylene-bridged compounds
An organocatalytic asymmetric conjugate addition-initiated reaction sequence of 2-hydroxycinnamaldehydes with various functionalized nitroalkanes has been described. The combination of iminium catalysis and thiourea anion-binding catalysis was found to be crucial...
