Organocatalytic diastereoselective synthesis of chiral decalines through the domino Claisen-Schmidt/Henry reaction

Org Biomol Chem. 2015 May 14;13(18):5110-4. doi: 10.1039/c5ob00562k.

Abstract

General and operative domino Claisen-Schmidt/Henry (CS/H) reaction has been revealed to obtain highly substituted chiral decalines in good yields with excellent ees and des by using push-pull enamine catalysis.
