A series of bifunctional primary amine-thiophosphoramides were synthesized, which proven to be effective organocatalysts for the asymmetric Michael reaction of acetone to both aryl and alkyl nitro olefins in the presence of phenol as a protic additive. The corresponding adducts were obtained in excellent chemical yields (up to >99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee). A novel chiral phosphoramide functions well as an efficient bifunctional organocatalyst for the asymmetric Michael addition of acetone, one of the most challenge substrate in Michael addition, to nitro olefinsto afford the corresponding syntheticvaluable γ-nitro ketones in good to excellent yield with high levels of enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee, respectively).
