RESUMO
The chiral primary amine catalyzed asymmetric Michael reaction of thiazolones and α,ß-unsaturated ketones was reported. Two different optimal catalytic systems were obtained corresponding to cyclic and linear α,ß-unsaturated ketones. By employing chiral primary amines as the catalysts and amino-acid derivatives as the additives, a variety of Michael adducts containing the scaffold of the thiazole ring were prepared in moderate to good yields and with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to 95% yield, all up to >19/1 dr, up to 96% ee). The reaction was scaled up to obtain 1.73 grams of the Michael adduct with the maintenance of yield and stereoselectivity.
RESUMO
The first example of organocatalyzed γ'-selective functionalization of cyclic enones with 3-substituted maleimides results in the stereoselective construction quaternary carbon center is presented. The reactions provided γ'-functionalized cyclic enones and ß-functionalized cyclopentenones in good to excellent yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities. DFT calculations indicated that the reaction might proceed as a [4+2] cycloaddition/retro-Mannich reaction which could explain the unexpected product with a chiral quaternary carbon center and the excellent stereoselectivity.
RESUMO
An asymmetric doubly vinylogous Michael addition (DVMA) of α,ß-unsaturated γ-butyrolactams to sterically congested ß-substituted cyclic dienones with high site-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity has been achieved. An unprecedented DVMA/vinylogous Michael addition/isomerization cascade reaction affords chiral fused tricyclic γ-lactams with four newly formed stereocenters.

The first example of a photoexcitated amine-catalyzed process for asymmetric Michael addition of o-quinodimethanes to enones is described. In the presence of simple chiral amino acid esters, a variety of Michael adducts were generally obtained in good yields and excellent stereoselectivities. This strategy can be successfully applied to 3-substituted-2-cyclohexenones and provides an asymmetric access to all-carbon quaternary centers. Furthermore, the high stereocontrol was explained by means of density-functional theory (DFT) calculations.
RESUMO
A highly enantioselective synthesis of spirocycles and bridged rings has been developed through a formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction between enones and N-sulfonylimines. The unprecedented strategy has been realized utilizing N-sulfonylimine as a novel dienophile through enamine-iminium tautomerism of N-sulfonylimine. In addition, a γ,ε-regioselective cycloaddition reaction proceeded by employing methylene chromene species as dienophiles.
