Abstract

The Michael reaction of several 1, 3-dicarbonyl compounds, nitro-alkanes, and thiols as donors with methyl vinyl ketone, acrolein, methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, and mesityl oxide as acceptors on the surface of alumina without any solvent proceed very efficiently and furnish high yield of adducts.
