title: Stereoselective synthesis of N-heterocycles through amine addition to nitroalkenes.
abstract: An efficient route for the preparation of substituted N-heterocycles was developed through the amine addition to nitroalkenes. The reaction tolerates a large substrate scope with good to excellent yields (up to 95%) and excellent stereoselectivities (up to 99 : 1 dr).
