A catalytic asymmetric decarboxylative [3 + 2] annulation via indolyl copper-allenylidene amphiphilic intermediates has been developed. This protocol offers a straightforward method for the synthesis of biologically important pyrrolo[1,2-]indoles bearing contiguous quaternary and tertiary stereogenic centers with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to >20:1 dr and >99% ee). In addition, the diversity-oriented synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-]indoles was achieved via versatile transformations of the alkyne-containing cycloadducts.
发展了一种通过吲哚基铜-烯丙基两性中间体制备催化不对称脱羧[3+2]环加成的方法。该方法为合成具有连续季碳和三级手性中心的生物重要吡咯并[1,2-a]吲哚提供了一种直接的方法,具有优异的非对映选择性和对映选择性(高达>20:1 的 dr 和>99%的 ee)。此外,通过炔烃环加成产物的多种转化,实现了吡咯并[1,2-a]吲哚的多样性导向合成。
