Organocatalytic diastereo- and enantioselective Michael addition reactions of 5-aryl-1,3-dioxolan-4-ones.

5-Aryl-1,3-dioxolan-4-one heterocycles derived from mandelic acid derivatives and hexafluoroacetone have been identified as new and effective pro-nucleophiles in highly diastereo- and enantioselective Michael addition reactions to nitro olefins catalyzed by bifunctional epi-9-amino-9-deoxy cinchona...
