A new and crucial synthon of 3-((diphenylmethylene)-amino)-oxindole was designed and synthesized, for which an organocatalytic and enantioselective Michael/cyclization reaction with a terminal vinyl ketone catalyzed by a cinchona base was disclosed. A wide variety (28 examples) of almost all new chiral spiro[oxindol-3,2'-pyrrols] were prepared in excellent yields (up to 99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (95-99% ee), of which a typical chiral spiro product was further reduced to chiral spiro[oxindole-3,2'-pyrrolidine].
设计并合成了一种新的、关键的 3-((二苯基亚甲基)-氨基)-氧吲哚合成子,其中揭示了一种金鸡纳碱催化的末端乙烯基酮的有机催化和对映选择性迈克尔/环化反应。通过该反应,可以以优异的收率(高达 99%)和对映选择性(95-99%ee)制备多种(28 个实例)几乎全新的手性螺[氧吲哚-3,2'-吡咯]。其中,一个典型的手性螺产物进一步还原为手性螺[氧吲哚-3,2'-吡咯烷]。
