In the manuscript the first enantioselective dearomative Michael addition between α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and 2-nitrobenzofurans realized under N-heterocyclic carbene activation has been described. The reaction proceeds via addition of homoenolate to Michael acceptors leading to the formation of biologically important heterocycles with high yields and stereoselectivities. Their functionalization potential has been confirmed in selected, diastereoselective transformations.

An asymmetric organocatalytic Michael addition–cyclization cascade reaction has been developed using cyclopentane-1,2-dione as a Michael donor and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes as Michael acceptors. Bicyclic hemiacetals were obtained in excellent yields and enantioselectivities. On the basis of the results, a one-pot reaction has been developed to obtain chiral 3-substituted cyclopentane-1,2-diones and substituted dihydropyrans in good yields and excellent enantioselectivity.

: Many catalysts were tested in asymmetric Michael additions in order to synthesize enantioenriched products. One of the most common reaction types among the Michael reactions is the conjugated addition of malonates to enones making it possible to investigate the structure–activity relationship of the catalysts. The most commonly used Michael acceptors are chalcone, substituted chalcones, chalcone derivatives, cyclic enones, while typical donors may be dimethyl, diethyl, dipropyl, diisopropyl, dibutyl, di-tert-butyl and dibenzyl malonates. This review summarizes the most important enantioselective catalysts applied in these types of reactions.

AbstractThiazolidine-2-thiones were prepared via a novel multicomponent reaction of primary amines (amino acids), carbon disulfide, and γ-bromocrotonates. The reaction proceeds via a domino alkylation/intramolecular Michael addition to provide the corresponding thiazolidine-2-thiones in high to excellent yields. By using diamines in this protocol, bis(thiazolidine-2-thiones) derivatives were synthesized. The synthetic utility of the adducts was demonstrated by hydrolysis, amidation, and oxidation reactions.

3-Alkylindoles on reaction with a cyclohexa-2,4-dien-1-one catalyzed by BF3·OEt2 gave the corresponding 3-alkyl-3-arylindolenines in high yields through a tandem Michael addition/aromatization sequence. In the presence of HCl, these indolenine derivatives underwent a facile Plancher-type C-3 to C-2 aryl rearrangement to deliver the corresponding 2-arylindoles.

A rhodium-catalyzed highly regio- and enantioselective hydroalkynylation generating cis-hydrobenzofuranone-tethered enynes has been developed. The reaction proceeds with a dynamic kinetic head-to-head insertion and symmetry breaking Michael addition cascade.

A highly efficient and enantioselective approach to the synthesis of functionalized benzofuran-3(2H)-ones is presented. It proceeds via an intramolecular Stetter reaction using β,β-disubstituted Michael acceptors in the construction of five-membered rings with fully-substituted quaternary stereogenic centers and is promoted by terpene-derived triazolium salts. As a result, a series of chiral 2,2-disubstituted benzofuran-3(2H)-one derivatives with linear, branched, and cyclic aliphatic substitutions on the quaternary stereogenic center were obtained in high yields and with excellent enantioselectivities of up to 99% ee.
