Figure 14 The results obtained in the same work with a,f-unsaturated imines 58 are more interesting. Imines 58 proved to be a particu- larly useful class of substrates giving rise to the a-nitroamine prod- ucts 59 in high enantiomeric excesses under optimized reaction conditions [60] (Scheme 26). Several a-amido sulfones 61 derived from aromatic and het- eroaromatic aldehydes were treated with nitromethane under opti- mized reaction conditions to furnish the corresponding optically active N-Boc B-nitroamines 62 with fairly good yields and enanti- omeric excesses. In the first asymmetric aza-Henry reaction N- carbamoyl imines generated in situ from a-amido sulfones 61 were used under phase-transfer conditions by the help of the commer- Scheme 26.
