4-Aminothioureaprolinal dithioacetal 4a is a highly efficient catalyst for the asymmetric Michael addition of ketones and aldehydes to nitroolefins requiring only 3 mol-% catalyst loading. The reactions proceeded smoothly and gave syn selective adducts with excellent yields (up to 98a% yield), diastereoselectivity (up to >99:1adr), and enantioselectivity (up to 99a%aee) under solvent free conditions at room temperature. This extremely simple and practical procedure increases the attractiveness of this reaction. 4-Aminothioureaprolinal dithioacetal 4a is a highly efficient catalyst for asymmetric Michael additions of ketones and aldehydes to nitroolefins.
