    Author: Chen YK, Yoshida M, MacMillan DW.
    Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2006 Jul 26; 128(29):9328-9. PubMed ID: 16848457.
    Abstract:
    The first enantioselective organocatalytic amine conjugate addition has been successfully developed. The application of LUMO-lowering iminium catalysis has enabled the highly chemo- and enantioselective 1,4-addition of a rationally designed N-silyloxycarbamate nucleophile (HOMO-raised) to alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes. Imidazolidinone 2*pTSA was found to catalyze the addition of various orthogonally N-protected silyloxycarbamate nucleophiles to a range of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes, affording synthetically useful beta-amino aldehyde intermediates. The synthetic utility of the protocol was demonstrated in the rapid synthesis of enantioenriched beta-amino acids in one operation and 1,3-amino alcohol derivatives in three operations.
