A highly efficient synthesis of enantioenriched spiroindolines by catalytic asymmetric dearomatization of indolyl dihydropyridines through a chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed enamine isomerization/spirocyclization/transfer hydrogenation sequence has been developed. This reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions, affording novel spiroindolines in good yields (up to 88 %) with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 97 % ee). DFT calculations provide insights into the reaction mechanism as well as the origin of stereochemistry.
