Abstract
Nitromethane reacts via a diastereoselective double Michael addition w ith electrophilic alkenes activated by cyano and methoxycarbonyl group s [XC6H4CH=C(CN)CO2Me] in the presence of catalytic amounts of piperid ine under solvent-free conditions coupled with focused microwave irrad iation to afford new, highly functionalized cyclohexenes; no cycloprop ane formation is observed.
