Hechavarria Fonseca and List achieved intramolecular conjugate addition of alde-
hydes to enones by employing MacMillan's imidazolidinone
71
[83] . The cysteine -
derived organocatalyst
72
[84] was also used in the intramolecular conjugate addition to
afford compounds containing three and two contiguous chiral centers in good yields and
with high diastereo - and enantioselectivities (Scheme 8A.47 ).
8A.3.2. Conjugate Addition of Ketones
A variety of chiral organocatalysts such as
Cinchona
alkaloid derivatives, chiral primary
and secondary amines, small peptides, and so on have been applied in asymmetric
