N,N'-Bis(2-quinolylmethylene)-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diamine-Ni(II) complex and analogous complexes were found to be efficient chiral Lewis acid catalysts for the asymmetric Michael addition reactions between 2-silyloxyfurans and 3-alkenoyl-2-oxazolidinones, for which asymmetric inductions of up to 97% ee were obtained.
