Article abstract of DOI:10.1055/s-1987-27907

The reaction of α,β-unsaturated nitro compounds with aldehydes or electron deficient olefins, in the presence of a base provides a simple method for the preparation of α-substituted allylic nitro compounds.The initially formed allylic carbanion reacts reg
