ABSTRACT
Enantioselective construction of molecules bearing multiple stereogenic elements is increasingly related to the synthesis of enantiopure natural products, pharmaceuticals, and functional materials. However, atom-economical and enantioselective approaches to install multiple stereogenic elements in a small molecular template by limited chemical transformation remain challenging. We describe an organocatalytic enantioselective method for the preparation of polychiral molecules bearing four types of stereogenic elements in fused azepines via vinylidene ortho-quinone methide (VQM)-mediated intramolecular electrophilic aromatic substitution. This method was proved robust with a wide range of substrate scope (46-92 % yield), with excellent diastereoselectivity (>201 dr) and enantioselectivity achieved (up to 97 % ee). Optical properties and Ru3+ -induced fluorescence responses of these compounds suggest their potential applications in optoelectronic materials and heavy metal ion detection.
