Abstract

Abstract Focusing on mechanistic aspects, a study of the influence of the (E)/(Z) double- bond geometry of the Michael acceptor on the enantioselectivity of copper-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition reactions has been realized. In spite of numerous articles concerning copper-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition reactions, the major factors of such a reaction are quite difficult to elucidate. Although our experiments have not allowed ...
