Abstract

Two novel diastereoisomeric P-chirogenic phosphine catalysts, i.e., JiaPhos, which can be easily derived from inexpensive and commercially available starting materials in five chemical operations (totally 4.16g scale), are introduced. To our delight, the JiaPhos catalysts display good performance in enantioselective (4 + 2) annulations involving 3-methylene-2-oxindoles and γ-benzyl allenoates, providing a wide range of 3,3'-spirocyclic oxindoles with good efficiency and enantioselectivity.
