In DMSO, a catalytic amount of Barton's base (2-t-butyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethylguanidine, BTMG) effectively catalyzed intermolecular three-component reactions of α,β-unsaturated esters, aldehydes, and carbon-, sulfur-, or nitrogen-pronucleophiles to give three-component addition products with the formation of two new σ-bonds: pronucleophiles and aldehydes reacted with α,β-unsaturated esters at their β-positions and α-positions, respectively. Mechanism studies suggested that these reactions proceeded by the first intermolecular Michael addition of anionic nucleophiles that were formed from pronucleophiles with a catalytic amount of BTMG, followed by intermolecular aldol reactions of transient ester enolates even in the presence of more than stoichiometric amounts of acidic pronucleophiles. High nucleophilicity over Br?nsted basicity of transient enolates in polar solvents was observed for transient ester enolates rather than ketone enolates.

Three-component reactions of nitroalkanes, acrylamides, and aldehydes by using a catalytic amount of KOH in DMSO gave β′-hydroxy-γ-nitro amides. Mechanistic studies suggested that the reactions proceeded by domino Michael/aldol reactions. The highly nucle
