Abstract

We report herein an organocatalytic asymmetric protocol for the construction of tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters bearing three heteroatoms. The reaction proceeded via the enantioselective intramolecular cyclization reaction of vinylidene ortho-quinone methide (VQM) with imidates to form pentacyclic heterocycles. The formed tetrasubstituted carbon center was stable under a high temperature and the conditions for further transformations.
