Abstract

The diastereoselective assembly of spiroindolenines via a synergistic scandium/gold-catalyzed dearomative spiroannulation is herein described. This protocol offers access to a wide variety of spiroindolenine derivatives in 86% average yield with moderate to excellent diastereoselectivities (up to 97:3 dr). The control experimental studies lend support to the bimetallic relay catalysis. Moreover, the scale-up reaction and synthetic transformations of spiroindolenine product further demonstrate its synthetic utility.
