Abstract
A new class of dehydroabietic amine-substituted primary amine-thiourea bifunctional catalysts were designed and synthesized. The doubly stereocontrolled organocatalytic conjugate addition of a variety of heterocycles-bearing ketones to nitroalkenes was investigated for the first time, affording (S)-or (R)-γ-nitro heteroaromatic ketones with excellent enantioselectivities (up to ee> 99%). Furthermore, the nearly optically pure γ- ...
