Journal ArticleDOI
Oxindole synthesis by direct coupling of C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H Centers
Yi-Xia Jia,E. Peter Kündig +1 more
TL;DR: An sp(2)/sp(3) get-together: A novel and efficient method can be used to synthesize 3,3-disubstitued oxindoles by the direct intramolecular oxidative coupling of an aryl C(sp(2)-H and a C(3))-H center (see scheme).
Journal ArticleDOI
Fused Indolines by Palladium‐Catalyzed Asymmetric CC Coupling Involving an Unactivated Methylene Group
TL;DR: Bulky, thermally stable, chiral palladium complexes generated from N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) were successfully applied to the synthesis of highly enantioenriched trans-fused indolines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bulky Chiral Carbene Ligands and Their Application in the Palladium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Intramolecular α-Arylation of Amides
TL;DR: New, C2-symmetric bulky N-heterocyclic carbene ligands bring major improvements in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular α-arylation of amides to give oxindoles, which are formed in high yield and excellent enantiomeric purity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chiral N-heterocyclic carbene ligands for asymmetric catalytic oxindole synthesis
TL;DR: The Pd-catalysed asymmetric intramolecular alpha-arylation of amide enolates containing heteroatom substituents gives chiral 3-alkoxy or 3-aminooxindoles in high yield and with enantioselectivities up to 97% ee when a new chiral N-heterocyclic carbene ligand is used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Asymmetric C(sp3)-H/C(Ar) coupling reactions. Highly enantio-enriched indolines via regiodivergent reaction of a racemic mixture
TL;DR: Chiral racemic precursors react in a regiodivergent reaction of a racemic mixture to yield enantioenriched indolines resulting from either methyl C–H activation or asymmetric methylene C-H activation.
