Abstract

Asymmetric intramolecular Michael reaction catalyzed by an organocatalyst derived from cysteine has been developed for the synthesis of chiral bicyclo[4.3.0]nonene and cis-disubstituted cyclopentane skeletons with a creation of three or two contiguous chiral centers in good yield with high diastereo- and excellent enantioselectivities.
