Primary amino acid lithium salt as a catalyst for asymmetric Michael addition of isobutyraldehyde with beta-nitroalkenes.
Phenylalanine lithium salt was found to be an effective catalyst for asymmetric Michael addition of isobutyraldehyde with beta-nitroalkenes to give quaternary carbon-containing nitroalkanes.
