Abstract
The catalytic enantioselective Michael reaction promoted by quaternary ammo nium salt from cinchonidine as a phase transfer catalyst is described. Trea tment of nitroalkanes with chalcone derivatives under mild reaction conditi ons afforded the corresponding Michael adducts in good yields with good to moderate enantiomeric excesses.
