By utilizing chiral phosphoric acid, a method for constructing axially chiral tetrasubstituted allenes featuring indole skeletons has been established, providing high yields and enantioselectivities.
An organocatalytic construction of axially chiral tetrasubstituted allenes featuring indole skeletons has been established. With the aid of chiral phosphoric acid, alkynyl indole imine methides were formed in situ from alpha-(3-indolyl) propargylic alcohols, followed by the asymmetric 1,6-conjugate addition with 2-substituted indoles, furnishing axially chiral indole-containing tetrasubstituted allenes in generally high yields and enantioselectivities.
