Abstract

Three novel catalysts based upon cyclic β-aminophosphonate derivatives 1–3 were designed to catalyze the asymmetric Michael addition reactions of ketones to β-nitrostyrenes. Among the catalysts that have been prepared in this study, cyclic β-aminophosphonic acid monoethylester 3 showed the highest catalytic ability, giving the corresponding Michael adduct in good yields, high enantioselectivities (up to 92% ee), and high diastereoselectivities (syn:anti up to 95:5).

Graphical abstractThe novel catalyst, cyclic β-aminophosphonic acid monoethyl ester, has been found to catalyze the asymmetric Michael addition reactions of ketones to β-nitrostyrenes in good yields, high enantioselectivities, and high diastereoselectivities.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
