Abstract

Here, we reports enantioselective Michael additions reaction of diethyl malonate with substituted styrene. The yield ranges from 80-65 % having enantioselectivity 80-95%. The present strategy useful for the synthesis (-)-Baclofen. Starting from commercially available 4-chlorobenzaldehyde.
