RESUMO
Phosphine-catalyzed enantioselective formal (4 + 2)-cycloadditions of 2-(4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazin-4-yl)acrylates with isocyanates have been developed for the first time. The initial SN2' attack of the chiral phosphine organocatalyst on 2-(4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazin-4-yl)acrylates generated the key phosphine-containing dipolar intermediates, and the subsequent formal cycloaddition with isocyanates furnished a broad scope of 3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2-ones in 60-84% yields with 61-92% ee.

A type of Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) carbonates has been developed from ninhydrin. These MBH carbonates have been successfully employed as 3C-synthons in the organocatalytic asymmetric [3 + 2]-annulations of the isatin-derived electron-deficient olefins, affording structurally diverse spirooxindoles in high yield with excellent stereoselectivity. In particular, the regioselectivity of MBH carbonates was controlled by the reaction partner, 3-methyleneoxindoles with carbonyl groups (R = ArCO), affording ß-selective products and 3-methyleneoxindoles with ester groups (R = CO2Me) furnishing γ-selective products. The representative scale-up reactions and transformation of product were examined. The reaction mechanism was expounded by control experiments.

The enantioselective conjugate addition of 2-naphthols to ortho-hydroxyphenyl substituted para-quinone methides has been achieved with the aid of a chiral phosphoric acid. Importantly, the reaction took place with excellent chemo- and regioselectivities. In addition, the protocol features a low catalyst loading, mild reaction conditions, and enables the formation of unsymmetrical triarylmethanes in good to high yields with generally high enantioselectivities.
