An asymmetric aza‐Diels–Alder reaction of 3‐vinylindoles with isatin‐derived ketimines has been developed. A series of spiroindolone derivatives were thus obtained in good to excellent yields with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 96 % yield and 99 % ee). Furthermore, the antimalarial compound NITD609 could be obtained in three steps with an overall yield of 40.6 %. Control experiments and operando
The first catalytic asymmetricDiels–Alderreaction of 3-vinylindole and nitroolefin is described. In the promotion of organocatalyst 3j, structurally diverse 1-nitro-hydrocarbazoles are produced in moderate-to-good yields and high-to-excellent enantioselectivities. All of these products are obtained as a single diastereoisomer. The 1-nitro-hydrocarbazole compounds can be converted into 1-amino-hydrocarbazole

The first catalytic asymmetric Povarov reaction of isatin-derived 2-azadienes with 3-vinylindoles was established in the presence of chiral phosphoric acid, which tolerates a wide range of substrates with generally excellent diastereoselectivity and good enantioselectivity (up to >95 : 5 dr, 89 : 11 er). This approach will greatly enrich the chemistry of the catalytic asymmetric Povarov reaction, in particular ketone-involved transformations. Furthermore, this protocol represents the first diastereo- and enantio-selective construction of a spiro[indolin-3,2′-quinoline] framework bearing an indole moiety. This novel type of spiro-compound not only contains two chiral centers, including one quaternary stereogenic center, but also integrates two biologically important structures of spiro[indolin-3,2′-quinoline] and indole, which may find medicinal applications after bioassay.
A highly efficient catalytic asymmetric Diels-Alderreaction between 3-vinylindoles and methyleneindolinones has been achieved using chiral N,N'-dioxide-Ni(II) complexes as the catalysts. A wide variety of substrates were readily tolerated, generating exclusively the corresponding exo-carbazolespirooxindole derivatives in excellent yields with high enantiomeric excesses (up to 98% yield, >99 : 1 d
