Investigation of the stereochemistry of intermolecular conjugate additions of nucleophiles to acyclic nitrosoalkenes.

ABSTRACT: Michael-type conjugate additions of γ-chiral aldehyde-derived acyclic nitrosoalkenes have been explored using a series of carbon and hetero nucleophiles. In all cases examined, these reactions are stereoselective, leading exclusively to the anti products.
