Michael Addition

CH2(COOC2H5)2 + CH2=CHCOCH3 → product

概述

A Michael donor (stabilized carbanion) adds to the beta-carbon of a Michael acceptor (alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl). This 1,4-conjugate addition forms a new carbon-carbon bond and is complementary to 1,2-addition. The Michael reaction is one of the most versatile C-C bond forming reactions.

日常示例

The Robinson annulation, combining Michael addition with aldol condensation, is used to build steroid ring systems in drug synthesis.
