摘要
An efficient asymmetric [2 + 3] annulation of simple aldehydes with N,N'-cyclic azomethine imines via oxidative N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis is disclosed, affording bicyclic pyrazolidinones bearing two vicinal tertiary stereogenic centers with moderate to good yields (56-84% for 19 examples), good to excellent diastereoselectivities (>20:1 for 17 examples), and good to excellent enantioselectivities (66-98% for 19 examples). This direct alpha-carbon functionalization reaction of aldehyde can be readily performed on gram scale under mild conditions, and a five-membered transition state is proposed to rationalize the stereochemical outcome.
