Abstract
The first intramolecular enantioselective cyclopropanation of indenes and trisubstituted alkenes was accomplished by using new chiral phosphine X5 derived gold(I) complexes. This reaction is a straightforward, efficient method for constructing [5-3-6] fused-ring compounds with two vicinal all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers, a core structure shared by numerous pharmacological products, and bioactive compounds. The salient features of this transformation include high enantioselectivity (up to >98% ee), excellent yield (>97%), and nice functional group tolerance.
