Abstract

An efficient enantioselective dearomatization of 2-nitrobenzofurans was realized via an organocatalyzed one-step Michael addition process. This method provides a facile strategy to access a range of structurally diverse 3,3'-disubstituted oxindoles, which feature an intriguing combination of two privileged motifs including 3-pyrrolyl-substituted-oxindoles and 2,3-dihydrobenzofurans substructures, in excellent results.
