Abstract

AbstractIn this communication, a straighforward asymmetric synthesis of spiro‐indoline‐pyrazolone compounds is described. This methodology consists in a formal [4+1] cycloaddition reaction of 4‐bromopyrazolones and aza‐ortho‐quinone methides generated in situ catalyzed by a bisquinine‐derived squaramide in CHCl3 under basic conditions. A variety of chiral spirocyclic compounds bearing a pyrazolone and an indoline moieties were obtained in moderate to good yields (up to 68 %) and moderate to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 93 % ee).
