Abstract The synthetically useful functionalized 2-substituted piperidines containing a lateral ketone group have been strategically accessed via an organocatalytic enantioselective intramolecular aza-Michael addition of enone carbamates, in which a novel internal substrate combination of the enone moiety as Michael acceptor and the carbamate moiety as Michael donor was revealed in asymmetric bifunctional organocatalysis. This ...
