Abstract Promoted by Samarium diiodide (SmI 2 ), α,β‐unsaturated amides were formed from nitrogen anions (formed in situ by the reduction of nitro compounds) and α,β‐unsaturated esters. This reaction contrasts with the conjugate addition between amines and α,β‐unsaturated esters promoted by samarium triiodide (SmI 3 ) and provides an alternative attractive way to obtain α,β‐unsaturated amides using SmI 2 .
