Three N-L-alaninylated Betti bases have been designed and conveniently synthesized and evaluated as organocatalysts for the asymmetric Michael addition of cyclohexanone to nitroolefins. Among them, 1a was found to be the most effective and high enantioselectivity up to >99% ee and excellent diastereoselectivity up to >99∶1 dr have been achieved. The influences of the structure and the loading of the catalyst, the amount of the additive, and the structure of the substrate have also been examined.

Key words: Michael addition, asymmetric, Betti base, nitroolefin
