Organocatalyzed enantioselective Michael additions of nitroalkanes to enones by using primary-secondary diamine catalysts.
Primary-secondary diamines perform as efficient organocatalysts for the asymmetric addition of nitroalkanes to enones, giving the Michael adducts with excellent yields and enantioselectivities.
