Popis: The first Michael addition reactions of the anions of aminocarbene complexes to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds are reported. Unlike their corresponding amide enolates, these anions give exclusive 1,4-addition to a number of enones. For chiral complex 27, it was shown that the formation of the 1,4-addition product is not reversible and that the initial 1,4-addition is thus kinetically controlled. The anions of aminocarbene complexes are much more effective in this regard than the anions of alkoxycarbene complexes. It was demonstrated that aminocarbene complexes can serve as synthons for amides in Michael additions since the metal can be liberated from the Michael adducts to give amide products by oxidation with either DMSO or dimethyldioxirane
