Abstract

How to close a ring: An approach to catalytic asymmetric 6? electrocyclization leads to a highly enantioselective process that was used in the synthesis of chiral indolines (see scheme). Treatment of N-aryl imines under phase transfer conditions in the presence of N-benzyl cinchonidinium chloride generates a delocalized 2-aza-pentadienyl anion system that cyclizes in up to 99?% yield and 98?%?ee.
