The first asymmetric synthetic approach to biologically relevant 3,3-diphenyloloxindoles was developed using -quinone methides derived from isatins and phenols. Chiral phosphoric acid efficiently catalyzed the reaction and delivered 3,3-diphenyloloxindoles under mild conditions with up to an equivalent yield and excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99% ee). The chirality was maintained in further synthesis.
首次采用 - 醌甲醚,由色酮和酚衍生而来,发展了一种具有生物相关意义的 3,3-二苯基氧吲哚的不对称合成方法。手性磷酸能够高效地催化该反应,在温和的条件下以高达当量的产率和优异的对映选择性(高达 >99%ee)得到 3,3-二苯基氧吲哚。在进一步的合成中,手性得到了保持。
