title: Intermolecular cross-double-michael addition between nitro and carbonyl activated olefins as a new approach in C-C bond formation.
abstract: A novel intermolecular cross-double-Michael addition between nitro and carbonyl activated olefins has been developed through Lewis base catalysis. The reaction took place with a large group of beta-alkyl nitroalkenes and alpha,beta-unsaturated ketone/esters, producing an allylic nitro compound in good to excellent yields.
