The enantioselective synthesis of α-substituted β-nitro nitriles 4 and β-nitroaldehydes 5 by Michael addition of formaldehyde SAMP-hydrazone 1 to nitroalkenes 2 in excellent overall yields and high enantiomeric excesses (ee=90->99%) is described. Compound 1 constitutes a neutral chiral formyl anion and cyanide equivalent. The absolute configuration was determined by X-ray structure analysis of the crystalline SAMP-hydrazone 1,4-adduct 3e.
