19. During the preparation of the present manuscript, a case of enantioselective nitro-Manich addition of nitroethane into two alkyl-derived aldimines was published: Anderson, J. C.; Howell, G. P.; Lawrence, R. M.; Wilson C. J. Org. Chem. 2005, 70, 5565. Nevertheless, the authors state the moderate stability of these two prepared aldimines.
