Abstract
The in-situ-generated zwitterionic allylic ylides between Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates from isatins and chiral tertiary amine catalysts underwent highly regioselective and enantioselective 1,3-oxo-ethynylation or 1,3-amino-sulfenylation reactions with silyl ethynyl-1,2-benziodoxol-3( 1H)-ones or N-(aryl or alkylthio)imides, respectively, giving densely functionalized products bearing a quaternary stereogenic center. An array of diversely structured scaffolds were efficiently constructed from the products, showing the synthetic versatility of the current catalytic strategy.
