Organocatalyzed Enantioselective [3+2] Cycloaddition Reactions for Synthesis of Dispiro[benzothiophenone-indandione-pyrrolidine] Derivatives

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: -2,2-difluoroethylbenzothiophenone imines was developed. This approach efficiently afforded dispiro[benzothiophenone-indandione-pyrrolidine]s, featuring three stereocenters, in 84-98% yields with 3-93% ee and 9:1->20:1 dr. Notably, the method maintained its yield and enantioselectivity integrity even in a gram-scale amplification experiment. For example, the product with substituents on aromatics were obtained in 90% yield with 91% ee and >20:1 dr. Its absolute configuration was established through X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis, and a plausible reaction mechanism was proposed.
