Abstract :
Chiral 2-azanorbornyl-3-methanol is used as an organocatalyst for the highly enantioselective direct vinylogous Michael addition reaction of vinyl malononitriles to α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. In many cases, the products can be obtained in almost optically pure form (>95% ee) after a single recrystallization.
