title: Alpha-aminophosphonates as novel organocatalysts for asymmetric Michael addition of carbonyl compounds to nitroolefins.
abstract: A cyclic alpha-aminophosphonate was found to be a novel organocatalyst for Michael type addition reactions of carbonyl compounds to nitroolefins to afford the corresponding adducts in high enantio- and diastereoselectivities.
