Abstract

An organocatalytic enantioselective Mannich-type reaction of isocyanoacetate with N-sulfonylimines catalyzed by chiral thioureas derived from quinine yielded 2-imidazolines with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities (up to >99:1 dr. and 96% ee). This reaction provided a convenient route to access various imidazolines and related α,β-diamino acids having a quaternary carbon center in high enantiomeric purities.
