Article Abstract

The first enantioselective heteroannulation of 1,3-dienes by 2-iodoanilines and 2-iodobenzylic alcohols is described. The application of a BINOL-derived phosphoramidite ligand bearing electron-withdrawing substituents is the key to obtaining high enantioselectivity. This protocol provides an efficient way to access optically active chiral indolines and isochromans from readily available starting materials.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers successfully created axially chiral C2-arylquinoline through an asymmetric reaction involving alkynes, using chiral phosphoric acid as a catalyst, achieving high yields and enantioselectivity.
  • The study outlines a detailed reaction mechanism divided into key steps: hydrogen transfer, C-N bonding, annulation, and dehydration, with multiple potential pathways for each step.
  • Theoretical analyses, including QTAIM and IGMH, clarified the influence of weak intermolecular interactions and provided insights into enantioselectivity, with theoretical calculations aligning well with experimental outcomes.

The efficient synthesis of chiral 2,2-disubstituted indolin-3-ones is of great importance due to its significant synthetic and biological applications. However, catalytic enantioselective methods for de novo synthesis of such heterocycles remain scarce. Herein, a novel cyclizative rearrangement of readily available anilines and vicinal diketones for the one-step construction of enantioenriched 2,2-disubstituted indolin-3-ones is presented.

An organocatalytic atroposelective strategy for the construction of axially chiral compounds containing benzimidazole and quinoline rings is described. The enantioselective heteroannulation reaction of 2-alkynylbenzimidazoles with aminophenylketones proceeded smoothly in the presence of chiral phosphoric acid to provide axially chiral heterobiaryls with good yields and enantioselectivities. This is the first example of the combination of benzimidazole and quinoline rings at the 2- and 3-positions, respectively, into axially chiral heterobiaryls by this new strategy.

Chiral morpholinone is an important building block in organic synthesis and a pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry. However, catalytic enantioselective methods for the construction of this ,-heterocycle remain scarce. We report herein a chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed enantioselective synthesis of C3-substituted morpholinones from aryl/alkylglyoxals and 2-(arylamino)ethan-1-ols.

An organocatalytic atroposelective strategy for accessing enantioenriched axially chiral IAN analogues was developed for the first time. A class of novel atropisomeric C2-arylquinoline skeletons were synthesized with high enantiocontrol via chiral phosphoric-acid-catalyzed heteroannulation of in situ generated vinylidene ortho-quinone methide (VQM) intermediates with ortho-aminophenones. The strategy tolerated a broad substrate scope, providing a facile organocatalytic approach to IAN analogues in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities under mild reaction conditions.
