15. Typical experimental procedure for Michael reaction of cyclic enones with β-keto esters catalyzed by chiral Ru amido complexes. Isobutyrylacetic acid methyl ester 3d (142 μL, 1.0 mmol), 2-cyclopentene-1-one 2 (84 μL, 1.0 mmol), and toluene (1.0 mL) were added to Ru[(1S,2S)-Tsdpen](hmb) 1b (13.0 mg, 0.02 mmol) and the mixture was degassed by freeze-thaw cycles. The mixture was stirred at 30°C for 24 h, then was evaporated with a vacuum pump and purified with flash column chromatography (silica gel, eluent:hexane/acetone = 9/1) to give (R)-4-methyl-3-oxo-2-(3-oxocyclopentyl)pentanoic acid methyl ester 4d in 95% isolated yield with 95% ee.
