Organocatalytic enantioselective aza-Michael reaction of nitrogen heterocycles and alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes.
The asymmetric organocatalytic aza-Michael reaction of several nitrogen heterocycles and alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes has been studied in detail; under the optimised conditions, the conjugate addition products have been obtained in high to excellent enantioselectivities.
