For the Pt-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of enones, Pt complexes were employed in the presence of various phosphine ligands and $H_2\;(or\;Et_3SiH),$ affording inter- and intra-molecular coupling products in good to modest yield. Depending on reaction protocols, different phosphine ligands were required to optimize the conditions. In the aldol reaction, the Pt catalyst involving $P(2,4,6-(OMe)_3C_6H_2)3\;or\;P(p-OMeC_6H_4)_3$ was chosen. Michael reaction proceeds in good yields in the presence of $P(p-CF_3C_6H_4)_3$. Regarding the activity of the reductants, $H_2$ exhibited superior activity to $Et_3SiH$, resulting in a shorter reaction time and higher yield in the aldol and Michael reaction. In light of the deuterium labeling studies, the catalytic cycle including the hydrometalation of the enones by the platinum hydride species was proposed.

We used dipodal type bis[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]amine (BTMA) silane coupling agent to modify silica nanoparticles to introduce secondary amino groups on the silica surface. These N-H groups were reacted with three different molecular weights (M.W. = 258, 575, and 700) of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylates to introduce different attached layer thicknesses on the silica surface by Michael addition reaction. After Michael addition reaction, we used several analytical techniques such as fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), elemental analysis (EA) and solid state $^{13}C$ cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CP/MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to characterize introduced structures. We found almost complete Michael addition reaction of both two acrylate groups of PDGDA with N-H groups of BTMA modified silica to form ${\beta}$-amino acid esters. Between equimolar ratio of pure BTMA and pure PEGDA reaction, only one acrylate group of two acrylate groups of PEGDA reacted with N-H groups of pure BTMA to form ${\beta}$-amino acid ester and the other remaining acrylate group can be used to form a polymer later.

Michael addition of certain nucleophiles on ${\alpha}$ , ${\beta}$-unsaturated ketones 1 led to the formation of adducts 2-7 as well as the reaction of arylidene derivatives with secondary amines afforded the amino compounds 9 and 11. Also, dialkylmalonates were treated with ${\alpha}$-cyano cinnamide to afford 13. On the other hand, double Michael cycloaddition of ethylcyanoacetate or tetrachlorophthalic anhydride to the suitable divinylketone were synthesized to produce 15-17. Selected compounds (13 and 6) were screened for muscle relaxant, anticonvulsant, and sedative activities using established pharmacological models. Their activities were compared with that of phenobarbital sodium taken as standard. Compound 6 was the most potent muscle relaxant while compounds 13a and 13c offered the highest anticonvulsant activity. Meanwhile compound 13c showed the highest potentiation of phenobarbital induced sleep in mice.

A new efficient catalytic method for aza/thia-Michael addition reactions of amines/thiols with higher product yields has been developed. Combining single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) with triethylammonium hydrogen phosphate (TEAP) ionic liquid (IL) can work as a catalyst. We utilized Raman spectroscopy to gain insight into the interactions between IL and SWCNT. The interactions between SWCNT with TEAP were confirmed by the increasing intensity ratios and spectral shift in wavelength of the Raman D and G bands of SWCNT. Further, the morphology of the resulting composite materials of TEAP and SWCNT was determined by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Higher product yield in reduced reaction time is the key advantage of using bucky gel as a catalyst for Michael reaction.

The reaction of cysteine with cinnamaldehyde have been studied kinetically and thermodynamically. It was found that the reaction proceeds in two steps; formation of the monoadduct by a Michael type addition followed by the nucleophilic attack of the second cysteine to the carbonyl carbon of the monoadduct to afford the thiazolidine derivative. A reaction profile for the reaction of cysteine with cinnamaldehyde was constructed based on the thermodynamic parameters analyzed for the forward and the reverse reactions. It was assumed that the second step of this reaction accompanies an intermediate, a Schiff base.

Microwave-assisted Michael reaction between EMME and various amines such as diphenylamine, 4-methyl-N-phenylbenzenamine, N-phenylnaphthalen-1-amine, dihexylamine, diisopropylamine, and 4-nitrobenzenamine were described. Solvent-free conditions on alumina as solid support in the presence of $K_2CO_3$ catalysts gave moderate to good yields (55 - 93%) of diethylmalonate analogues having enamine moieties under focused microwave irradiation.
