Abstract
An enantioselective selenocyclization of 1,1-disubstituted alkenes was achieved for the first time, which is enabled by a novel combination of a chiral BINAM-derived sulfide and an achiral Lewis acid. Various selenium-containing 4H-3,1-benzoxazines, which are widely present in a range of medicinally relevant molecules, were readily obtained in moderate to good yields and good to excellent enantioselectivities. A series of tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters were facilely constructed.
