title: Catalytic, highly enantio, and diastereoselective nitroso diels-alder reaction.
abstract: This communication presents studies that nitroso Diels-Alder adduct has been furnished in uniformly high yield and high enantioselectivity using nitrosopyridine as a substrate and copper as a catalyst. The obtained Diels-Alder adduct was easily transformed to corresponding chiral amino alcohols without loss of enantioselectivity.
