Stereochemical investigation of conjugate additions of carbon- and heteronucleophiles to ring-substituted nitrosocyclohexenes.

ABSTRACT: Intermolecular Michael-type conjugate additions of some in situ-generated ring-substituted nitrosocyclohexenes with both carbon- and heteronucleophiles have been found to be highly stereoselective, leading predominantly (or exclusively) to products resulting from axial attack on a half-chair conformation of the nitrosoalkene substrate.
