Title: Enantioselective construction of triaryl-substituted all-carbon quaternary stereocenters via organocatalytic arylation of oxindoles with azonaphthalenes. Author: Chen P, Lv MJ, Cheng JK, Xiang SH, Ren XZ, Zhang J, Tan B. Journal: Chem Sci; 2023 Mar 01; 14(9):2330-2335. PubMed ID: 36873834. Abstract: Azonaphthalenes have been verified as a class of effective arylation reagents in a variety of asymmetric transformations. Here a highly efficient approach to construct triaryl-substituted all-carbon quaternary stereocenters through chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed enantioselective arylation of 3-aryl-2-oxindoles with azonaphthalenes is disclosed. This chemistry is scalable and displays excellent functional group tolerance, furnishing a series of 3,3-disubstituted 2-oxindole derivatives in good yields with excellent enantiocontrol. Preliminary mechanistic data suggest that the initially formed direct addition intermediate undergoes intramolecular annulation under acidic reaction conditions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
