Abstract

Aza-Michael addition of aromatic or aliphatic amines with various electron-deficient alkenes was performed using alkaline Al2O3 as solid media at room temperature afforded the corresponding Michael addition products in good to excellent yields. The alkaline Al2O3 can be easily recovered and reused.
