Abstract
A new strategy for developing stereoselective bond-forming reactions is introduced; it takes advantage of the ionic nucleophilic catalysis of chiral ammonium betaines to utilize vinylic esters simultaneously as the enolate precursor and the acylating agent for coupling with electrophiles. Its synthetic utility is clearly demonstrated by the realization of a highly diastereo- and enantioselective aldol reaction from oxindole-derived vinylic carbonates.
