Herein, we report an enantioselective dehydrative γ-arylation of α-indolyl propargylic alcohols with phenols via organocatalysis, which provides efficient access to chiral tetrasubstituted allenes and naphthopyrans in high yields excellent regio- enantioselectivities under mild conditions. This method features the use cheaply available naphthols/phenols as C–H aryl source liberating water sole byproduct. Control experiments suggest that enantioselectivity remote regioselectivity stem from...

A catalytic asymmetric umpolung cross-Mannich reaction of cyclic ketimines is realized. This protocol provides an efficient methodology for the facile synthesis chiral vicinal tetrasubstituted diamines in high yields with excellent chemo-, regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivities using cinchona-derived bifunctional organocatalysts (85-98% yield, up to >20:1 dr, >99% ee).
