Abstract

Abstract Michael addition reactions of lithium enolates derived from ketones, esters, and amides to ethyl 3-trifluoromethylacrylate were found to proceed smoothly in moderate to excellent chemical yields as well as with a high degree of diastereoselectivity at the newly formed carbon–carbon bond.
