Abstract

BINOL-based, chiral phosphoric acids catalyze the substitution of 1-(o-hydroxyphenyl)propargylic alcohols with enamides to furnish 7-alkynyl-12a-acetamido-substituted benzo[c]xanthenes and related heterocycles in a one-pot operation with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity. Ambient reaction temperature, operationally simple reaction conditions, low catalyst loading, high yields, and excellent stereocontrol are attractive features of this process and make it a highly practical and versatile transformation.
