Abstract

An efficient approach to access functionalized dihydro-[1,3]oxazino[4,3-a] isoindole and tetrahydroisoquinoline skeletons has been developed through the addition-cyclization process of ynamides 8 with N-acyliminium ions generated from N,O-acetals 6,7. The reactions were conducted under the catalysis of Cu(OTf)2, and a number of functionalized dihydro-[1,3]oxazino[4,3-a] isoindoles 9a-9y and tetrahydroisoquinolines 10a-10g, 11a-11p were generated in 48–98% yields. When chiral ynamides 8n-8u were used, optically pure products 11a-11p could be obtained with good to excellent yields and diastereoselectivities.
