cooperative catalysis model has been reported for the asymmetric Friedel–Crafts (F–C) alkylation of indoles with trifluoromethyl pyruvates using Trost’s intramolecular dinuclear zinc complex as the catalyst. This dinuclear zinc catalyst was prepared in situ by reacting the chiral ligand (S,S)-L2b with 2 equiv of ZnEt2. A series of trifluoromethyl alcohol and indole-containing biological compounds were formed
Indoles, and pyrroles, and furans, oh my! Chiral phosphoric acidcatalyzed Friedel–Crafts alkylation of indoles with 3,3,3‐trifluoropyruvate gave the corresponding adducts in excellent yields with high enantioselectivities. Electron‐deficient indoles, in particular, exhibited excellent enantioselectivities.

A mild and efficient catalyst system for asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles with trifluoropyruvates was reported. The chiral ligands took the advantages of both the proline and the binaphthyl moieties, and the in situ prepared Cu(II) catalyst showed good substrate tolerance in the reactions. Indoles bearing different substituents could be tolerated, and the desired products could be obtained

The coordinated OH group in cationic complexes [eta(n)-ring)M(NOH)(Solv)][SbF6] and [(eta(n)-ring)M(NOH)(R)-P1}][SbF6](2) ((eta(n)-ring)M = (eta(5)-C5Me5)Rh, (eta(5)-C5Me5)Ir, (eta(6)-p-MeC(6)H(4)iPr)Ru; NOH = hydroxypyridine ligand; (R)-P1 = (R)-monophos) is deprotonated by Na2CO3, rendering bi- or mononuclear compounds of formulas [(eta(n)-ring)M(kappa N-2,O-mu-O-NO}(2)][SbF6](2) and [(eta(n)-ring)M(NO)(R)-P1}][SbF6], respectively. The complexes have been characterized by analytical and spectroscopic means, including the determination of the crystal structures of [((eta(n)-ring)M(kappa N-2,O-mu-O-NO}(2)[SbF6](2) (NOH = NOH-1, (eta(n)-ring)M = (eta(5)-C5Me5)Rh, 8a; (eta(6)-p-MeC(6)H(4)iPr)Ru, 8c) and [(eta(5)-C5Me5)Ir(NO)-((R)-P1}][SbF6] (NOH = (R)-NOH-2; (R)-11b) by X-ray diffractometric methods. In complexes [(eta(n)-ring)M(NOH)(P*)1[SbF6](2) (P* = chiral phosphoramidite ligand) the proton of the coordinated hydroxypyridine ligand is able to activate the carbonyl group of methyl 3,3,3-trifluoropyruvate toward the Friedel-Crafts addition of indoles. In most cases, quantitative conversion is achieved in a few minutes, at -70 degrees C, with an ee of up to 8296. NMR data support the activation of the pyruvate by interaction between its carbonyl oxygen and the OH group of the coordinated hydroxymethylpyridine. Therefore, the metallic complexes act as Lewis acid assisted Bronsted acid catalysts.
