• on the results of the stoichiometric reaction, a secondary amine-catalyzed nitro-Michael reaction is performed as well which afforded reasonable diastereoselectivities.

• off the stereoselectivity [13]. Herein we investigated the induction pathway and significantly optimized the stereoselectivity of the reaction. Furthermore, a catalytic approach was introduced which paves the way to the final goal of supramolecular stereoselective catalysis with hierarchical helicates

• formed helicates with mixtures of ligands as platforms to control the stereochemistry of C–C bond-forming reactions. However, it would be of great advantage to transfer the findings to catalytic C–C bond-forming reactions which are catalyzed by hierarchical helicates containing chiral ligands for
