AbstractA catalytic enantioselective aldol reaction of alkenyl esters with isatins was achieved using a DM-BINAP·AgOTf complex as the chiral precatalyst and N,N-diisopropylethylamine as the base precatalyst in the presence of methanol or 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol. Optically active 3-alkylated 3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles having up to 98% ee were diastereoselectively obtained in moderate to high yields not only from cyclic alkenyl esters but also from acyclic ones through the in situ generated chiral silver enolates.

A catalytic enantioselective aldol reaction of alkenyl esters with α-ketoesters was achieved using an (R)-BINOL-derived chiral tin dibromide possessing a 4-t-butylphenyl group at 3- and 3’-positions as the chiral precatalyst in the presence of sodium methoxide and methanol. Optically active aldol products possessing a chiral tertiary carbon with up to 92% ee were diastereoselectively obtained in moderate to high yields not only from cyclic alkenyl esters but also from acyclic ones under the influence of the in situ generated chiral tin methoxide.
