stabilizing the reaction intermediate and enhancing the stereoselectivity of the reactions. The desired products can be obtained in up to 98% yield at 99% enantiomeric excess. The same high enantioselectivity can be observed when the reaction is carried in a gram scale, indicating a good scalability of the catalyst system in enantioselectiveFriedel–Crafts alkylation of different indoles with β,γ-unsaturated
AgAsF<sub>6</sub>/Sm(OTf)<sub>3</sub> Promoted Reversal of Enantioselectivity for the Asymmetric Friedel−Crafts Alkylations of Indoles with β,γ-Unsaturated α-Ketoesters
The first example of central metal controlled reversal of enantioselectivity in asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylation of Indoles and beta,gamma-unsaturated alpha-ketoesters has been developed. Using the same chiral starting material derived N,N'-dioxides 1 a and 1 b as ligands, various indole esters 4 were obtained In good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities. The reaction also featured mild reaction conditions and remarkably low catalyst loading (down to 0.01 mol %).

Enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions of indoles with beta,gamma-unsaturated alpha-ketoesters catalyzed by novel chiral C-2-symmetric squaramide-linked bisoxazoline-Zn(OTf)(2) complexes were investigated. The corresponding indole ketoesters were obtained in good to excellent yields (up to 98%) and with high enantioselectivities (up to 94% ee). This is the first report on the use of chiral squaramide-linked bisoxazoline SQBOX in a catalytic enanitioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
