Organocatalytic enantioselective conjugate addition of nitromethane to alkylidenemalonates: asymmetric synthesis of pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid derivatives

Abstract

A highly enantioselective nitromethane addition to alkylidene malonates catalyzed by cinchona-alkaloid derived thiourea based organocatalyst has been developed that offers a new route to the synthesis of substituted pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid derivatives and 3-arylpyrrolidines/pyrrolidones.
