Abstract
AbstractA 1,6-conjugate addition reaction of β,β-disubstituted N-tert-butanesulfinyl metalloenamines, generated via stereospecific α-deprotonation of enantioenriched α,α-disubstituted ketimines or deprotonation of the NH in geometry-defined enesulfinamides, with isatin-derived para-quinone methides is developed to build vicinal quaternary stereocenters with high stereocontrol. The resulting 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles contain a less-accessible acyclic quaternary stereogenic carbon substituted with two sterically and electronically similar groups at the α-position of the imino group. This protocol constitutes a rare example of the stereoselective construction of vicinal quaternary stereocenters via the conjugate addition of acyclic enolates/aza-enolates bearing two similar β-substituents.
