Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphine‑Catalyzed (3+2) Annulation of Isoindigos with Allenes: Enantioselective Formation of Two Vicinal Quaternary Stereogenic Centers
TL;DR: A phosphine-catalyzed enantioselective (3+2) annulation reaction between allenes and isoindigos, containing either two identical or different oxindole moieties, is introduced as a powerful strategy for the construction of spirocyclic bisindoline alkaloid core structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rational design and atroposelective synthesis of N–N axially chiral compounds
Guang-Jian Mei,Guang-Jian Mei,Jonathan J. Wong,Wenrui Zheng,Anjanay A. Nangia,Kendall N. Houk,Yixin Lu +6 more
TL;DR: The first catalytic asymmetric synthesis of N–N axially chiral compounds has been accomplished via a quinidine catalyzed N-allylic alkylation reaction via DFT calculations to understand the origin of enantioselectivity and provide guidance for the design of additional molecules of this type.
Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytic asymmetric preparation of pyrroloindolines: strategies and applications to total synthesis.
TL;DR: The state-of-the-art catalytic asymmetric synthesis of pyrroloindolines, as well as the related applications to the total synthesis of natural products, are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facile access to benzofuran-fused tetrahydropyridines via catalytic asymmetric [4 + 2] cycloaddition of aurone-derived 1-azadienes with 3-vinylindoles
TL;DR: A highly enantioselective [4 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of aurone-derived 1-azadienes with 3-vinylindoles with excellent diastereo- and enantio-selectivities has been developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphine-Catalyzed Asymmetric Allylic Alkylation of Achiral MBH Carbonates with 3,3′-Bisindolines: Enantioselective Construction of Quaternary Stereogenic Centers
TL;DR: The asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA) of MBH carbonates with 3,3′-bisindolines under the catalysis of amino-acid-derived bifunctional phosphines was accomplished.
