The vinylogous Michael reaction is a powerful synthetic tool used in the construction of complex organic molecules. Its asymmetric variant, which is catalyzed by chiral organocatalysts, is particularly useful in the synthesis of bioactive molecules and pharmaceuticals. The book covers the underlying principles of organocatalysis, the mechanisms of the vinylogous Michael reaction, and the various types of organocatalysts used in the process. Enantioselective...
