Reagent 1 also undergoes asymmetric Michael additions with enolate ions. Michael additions with disubstituted lithium eno-lates proceed with almost complete tt-facial diastereoselectivity. Starting with these Michael additions, (—)-methyl jasmonate (eq 4) and (—)-estrone methyl ether (eq 5) can be obtained in high enantiomeric purities.

Acetoxy-l,7-octadiene (40) is converted into l,7-octadien-3-one (124) by hydrolysis and oxidation. The most useful application of this enone 124 is bisannulation to form two fused six-membered ketonesfl 13], The Michael addition of 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione (125) to 124 and asymmetric aldol condensation using (5)-phenylalanine afford the optically active diketone 126. The terminal alkene is oxidi2ed with PdCl2-CuCl2-02 to give the methyl ketone 127 in 77% yield. Finally, reduction of the double bond and aldol condensation produce the important intermediate 128 of steroid synthesis in optically pure form[114].

A commercially important outlet in the fragrance industry is the methyl dihydrojasmonate [24851-98-7] (26) which is made by Michael addition of a malonate to 2-pentyl-2-cyclopenten-l-one [91791 -21 -8] (52) and which is used in perfumery for blossom fragrances, particularly jasmine (see Perfumes). 

The versatility of this reaction is extended to a variety of aldehydes. The bisphenol derived from 2,6-di-/ f2 -butylphenol and furfural, (25) where R = furfuryl (13), is also used as an antioxidant. The utility of the 3,5-di-/ f2 -butyl-4-hydroxyben2yl moiety is evident in stabili2ets of all types (14), and its effectiveness has spurred investigations of derivatives of hindered alkylphenols to achieve better stahi1i2ing quaUties. Another example is the Michael addition of 2,6-di-/ f2 -butyl phenol to methyl acrylate. This reaction is carried out under basic conditions and yields methyl... 

A large number of hindered phenoHc antioxidants are based on the Michael addition of 2,6-di-/ f2 -butylphenol and methyl acrylate under basic catalysis to yield the hydrocinnamate which is a basic building block used in the production of octadecyl 3-(3,5-di-/ f2 butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate, [2082-79-3], tetrakis(methylene-3(3,5-di-/ f2 butyl-4-hydroxylphenyl)propionate)methane [6683-19-8], and many others (63,64). These hindered phenolic antioxidants are the most widely used primary stabilizers in the world and are used in polyolefins, synthetic and natural mbber, styrenics, vinyl polymers, and engineering resins. 2,6-Di-/ f2 -butylphenol is converted to a methylene isocyanate which is trimerized to a triazine derivative... 

An asymmetric synthesis of estrone begins with an asymmetric Michael addition of lithium enolate (178) to the scalemic sulfoxide (179). Direct treatment of the cmde Michael adduct with y /i7-chloroperbenzoic acid to oxidize the sulfoxide to a sulfone, followed by reductive removal of the bromine affords (180, X = a and PH R = H) in over 90% yield. Similarly to the conversion of (175) to (176), base-catalyzed epimerization of (180) produces an 85% isolated yield of (181, X = /5H R = H). C8 and C14 of (181) have the same relative and absolute stereochemistry as that of the naturally occurring steroids. Methylation of (181) provides (182). A (CH2)2CuLi-induced reductive cleavage of sulfone (182) followed by stereoselective alkylation of the resultant enolate with an allyl bromide yields (183). Ozonolysis of (183) produces (184) (wherein the aldehydric oxygen is by isopropyUdene) in 68% yield. Compound (184) is the optically active form of Ziegler s intermediate (176), and is converted to (+)-estrone in 6.3% overall yield and >95% enantiomeric excess (200). 

Michael-Type Additions. Michael additions are generally used to prepare methyl 3-mercaptopropionate (eq. 10) and mercaptopropionitrile (eq. 11) by the reaction of methyl acrylate or acrylonitrile and hydrogen sulfide using a basic catalyst. This reaction proceeds as shown ... 

Poly(vinyl alcohol) undergoes Michaels addition with compounds containing activated double bonds, including acrylonitrile (145—150), acrylamide (151—153), A/-methylolacrylamide (154—156), methyl vinyl ketone (157,158), acrolein (157), and sodium 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonate (159). The reactions have been carried out under conditions spanning from homogeneous reactions in solvent to heterogeneous reactions occurring in the swollen powder or fiber.

Similarly, methyl propiolate and methyl phenylpropiolate give the cyclazine (67) and its 2-phenyl derivative, respectively, as would be expected of reactions initiated through a Michael addition to the acetylenic ester. 

In a similar manner, overnight refluxing of 1-methyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile (112) with p-chlorothiophenol (108) at 100°C gave a Michael addition product as a 1 1 mixture of two isomers 113a and 113b in 70% total yield (Fig. 3). However, if the reaction was carried out at low temperature for 4 hours, kinetic isomer 113a was detected in 50% yield (84JHC981). 

Michael addition reaction of 1-hydroxytryptamines to Q ,/3-unsaturated carbonyl compounds is worthy of note (99H2815). Addition of Ab-acetyl- 1-hydroxy-tryptamine (39) to methyl acrylate and methyl crotonate in the presence of... 

The reaction of a cyclic ketone—e.g. cyclohexanone 1—with methyl vinyl ketone 2 resulting in a ring closure to yield a bicyclic a ,/3-unsaturated ketone 4, is called the Robinson annulation This reaction has found wide application in the synthesis of terpenes, and especially of steroids. Mechanistically the Robinson annulation consists of two consecutive reactions, a Michael addition followed by an Aldol reaction. Initially, upon treatment with a base, the cyclic ketone 1 is deprotonated to give an enolate, which undergoes a conjugate addition to the methyl vinyl ketone, i.e. a Michael addition, to give a 1,5-diketone 3 ... 

A fully unsaturated tricyclic indole derivative serves as the aromatic moiety for a nonsteroid antiinflammatory agent. Preparation of this compound starts with the Michael addition of the anion from methyl diethylmalonate to cyclohexanone. The product (32) is then hydrolyzed and decarboxylated to give ketoester 33. Fischer condensation with p-chlorophenylhydrazine leads to the indole This is then esterified (35) and dehydrogenated to the carbazole 36. Saponification leads...

The use of hydrazone or enamine derivatives of ketones or aldehydes offers the advantage of stcreocontrol via chelated azaenolates. Extremely useful synthetic methodology, with consistently high anti selectivity, has been developed using azaenolates based on (S)- or (R)-l-amino-2-(methoxymethyl)pyrrolidine (SAMP or RAMP)51 58 (Enders method, see Section 1.5.2.4.2.2.3.). An example which illustrates the efficiency of this type of Michael addition is the addition of the lithium azaenolate of (5 )-l-amino-2-(methoxymethyl)pyrrolidine (SAMP) hydrazone of propanal (R = II) to methyl (E )-2-butenoate to give the nub-isomer (an 1 adduct) in 80% yield with a diastereomeric ratio > 98 2,... 

Michael addition of the enolate of (42 )-4-rm-butyl-3-methyl-2-oxetanone to dimethyl (Z)-butenedioate yields a single diastereomer. This provides a method to control two new vicinal stereogenic centers one quaternary and one tertiary. The topicity of the addition is u with respect to the 3,3 -bond and l with respect to the 3, 4 -bondI09. 

This intramolecular Michael addition, when followed by an aldol condensation provides a useful route to tram-octahydroindenes methylated in the ring fusion positions. 

Successful methodology for diastereoselective Michael additions with chirality in the donor is so far limited to chiral cyclic enolates. The stereocontrol is mainly due to shielding of one of the jr-faces of the enolate by the ring substituent that resides at the stereogenic center. The (nmv-diastereoselective Michael addition of (5)-2-methyl-3-vinylcyclopentanonc illustrates this principle154-157. 

Using 3-substituted cyclohexanones the /rans-diastereoselective synthesis of decalones and octahydro-1 //-indenones may be achieved 164 169. This method has been applied, for instance, in the synthesis of 19-norsteroids. In a related Michael addition the lithium enolate of (R)-5-trimethylsilyl-2-cyclohexenone reacts with methyl 2-propenoate selectively tram to the trimethylsilyl substituent. Subsequent intramolecular ring closure provides a single enantiomer of the bicyclo[2.2.2]octane170 (see also Section 1.5.2.4.4.). 

A diastereomeric ratio (synjanti) of 90 10 is found, whereas within the syn-adduct the ratio between the ( ,5)/(S, )-isomers is 95 5. With methyl (Z)-2-butenoate the diastereomeric ratio (synjanti) is 25 75, and in the anti-adduct the (R,S) (S,S) ratio is 88 12186. These results are consistent with a chelated transition state as shown in Section 1.5.2.4.1. This enantioselcctivc Michael addition was used in the synthesis of 7,20-diisocyanoadocianc18 7.
