Abstract

An efficacious method in which BINOL-type chiral imidodiphosphoric acid catalyzed the asymmetric [5 + 1] annulation reaction of 2-pyrrolylphenol with 1-methylindoline-2,3-dione was established. The strategy tolerated a broad substrate scope, and 30 examples were obtained. A range of enantioenriched spiro[3,2'-morpholine-oxindole] derivatives which incorporate a tertiary stereocenter, with moderate to excellent yields (up to 96%) and enantioselectivities (up to 99%) under mild conditions, was delivered.
