title = "Catalyst-free aza-Michael addition of azole to β,γ-unsaturated- α-keto ester: An efficient access to C-N bond formation",
abstract = "An efficient aza-Michael addition of azoles to β,γ-unsaturated- α-keto esters under room temperature conditions has been developed. In this conjugate addition, no additional catalyst is employed. Azole reacts with β,γ-unsaturated-α-keto ester smoothly to afford new C-N bond adducts in good to excellent yields (up to 96\%).",
