Abstract
Alkali metal salts of substituted (S)-prolines, alkali metal alkoxides of (S)-prolinol, and Na salts of chiral substituted 2-amino-2"-hydroxy-1,1"-binaphthyls can catalyze the asymmetric Michael reaction of diethyl malonate with crotonaldehyde to give adducts in >90% yields with ee up to 40%. The influences of the catalyst structure, the nature of the alkali metal cation, temperature, the solvent, and salt additives on the reaction outcome were studied.
