Abstract

Asymmetric addition of indoles to cyclic α-diaryl-substituted N-acyl imines, which are generated in situ from 3-aryl 3-hydroxyisoindolinones, is described. The transformation proceeds smoothly with a broad range of indoles and isoindolinone alcohols using a SPINOL-derived chiral Brønsted acid catalyst to afford α-tetrasubstituted (3-indolyl)(diaryl)methanamines in excellent yields and enantioselectivities (up to 98 % yield, up to >99:1 e.r.). The origin of stereochemical induction is supported by DFT calculations and experimental data.
