Significance
The authors report an enantioselective aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) reaction using aliphatic α-amidosulfones as imine precursors. In general, aliphatic imines are challenging substrates for the MBH reaction due to their side reactions. To avoid this problem the imine was generated in situ, and the products were obtained in good to excellent yields and high enantioselectivities.
