AbstractIndoles are one of the most valuable nucleophiles in Michael additions catalyzed by a proper Lewis acid. In this paper, we found that a cationic iron salt is effective to carry out the Michael addition of indoles. β-Mono- and disubstituted enones reacted smoothly with indoles under our conditions. The cationic iron catalyst is very active, and the maximum TON was up to 425. Moreover, cationic iron-catalyzed conditions enabled a chemoselective Michael addition of a substrate possessing both enone and α,β-unsaturated ester moieties.

Enantiodivergence is an important concept in asymmetric catalysis that enables access to both enantiomers of a product relying on the same chiral source. This strategy is particularly appealing as an alternate approach when only one enantiomer of the required chiral ligand is readily accessible but both enantiomers of the product are desired. Despite their potential significance, general catalytic methods to induce reversal in enantioselectivity remain underdeveloped. Herein we report our studies focused on elucidating the origin of enantioselectivity reversal in Lewis acid-catalyzed Michael additions relying on the same enantiomer of ligand as the chiral source. Our results provide a detailed mechanistic understanding of this transformation based on experimental and computational investigations which reveal the important interplay between kinetics and thermodynamics responsible for the observed enantiodivergence.
