Mannich (or aza-Henry) reaction, is a carbon–carbon bondforming process that can result in the generation of two contiguous nitrogen-bearing stereogenic centers. This reaction allows straightforward entry to a variety of nitrogencontaining chiral building blocks such as vicinal diamines by reduction of the nitro group [1, 2] and α-amino carbonyl compounds by means of the Nef reaction.[3] As a result, considerable effort has been directed toward the development of catalytic asymmetric versions of the nitro-Mannich reaction over the past several years. Shibasaki et al. have described the enantioselective addition of nitroalkanes to N-phosphinoyl imines using chiral ytterbium [4] and aluminum [5] catalysts, while Jørgensen etal. have reported asymmetric coppercatalyzed additions to α-iminoesters.[6] Beyond these metal-catalyzed variants, two reports of enantioselective organocatalytic nitro-Mannich reactions have appeared recently. Takemoto et al. have reported a bifunctional thiourea catalyst that induces moderate enantioselectivity in the addition of nitromethane to a variety of aromatic N-phosphinoyl imines,[7] and Johnston et al. have developed a chiral bisamidine triflate salt that effects the diastereoselective addition of nitroethane to a range of electron-deficient N-Boc imines.[8]
