title: Mono thiomalonates as thioester enolate equivalents--enantioselective 1,4-addition reactions to nitroolefins under mild conditions.
abstract: Mono thiomalonates (MTMs) are introduced as thioester enolate equivalents. Asymmetric organocatalyzed conjugate addition reactions to nitroolefins proceed under mild conditions to afford synthetically useful γ-nitrothioesters with excellent yields and enantioselectivities.
