Abstract
Michael addition reaction between EMME and various O, S, N nucleophiles were investigated in the presence of catalysts such as KF, KOH, or K(OCCH3)3 under solvent‐free conditions either neat or on alumina as solid support. Compared to low reactivity of alcohols (40 to 80% yields according to aliphatic chain), aniline or thiophenol gave good to excellent yields (90–99%).
