In-spiro-ational: Biologically important and synthetically challenging spirocyclopentaneoxindoles with four consecutive stereocenters, including one spiroquaternary stereocenter, have been constructed in good yields and diastereoselectivity by a cascade reaction catalyzed by an N-heterocyclic carbene (see scheme). This reaction also provides a new strategy to access highly unusual tricyclic oxindoles.
通过 N-杂环卡宾(NHC)催化的级联反应,以良好的收率和非对映选择性构建了具有四个连续立体中心的生物重要且合成具有挑战性的螺环戊烷并吲哚啉,其中包括一个螺季碳立体中心(见方案)。该反应还为获得高度异常的三环吲哚啉提供了一种新策略。
