Abstract Chiral aldehyde catalysis is a burgeoning strategy for the catalytic asymmetric α-functionalization of aminomethyl compounds. However, the reaction types are limited and to date include no examples of stereodivergent catalysis. In this work, we disclose two chiral aldehyde-catalysed diastereodivergent reactions: a 1,6-conjugate addition of amino acids to para-quinone methides and a bio-inspired Mannich reaction of pyridinylmethanamines and imines. Both the syn- and anti-products of these two reactions can be obtained in moderate to high yields, diastereo- and enantioselectivities. Four potential reaction models produced by DFT calculations are proposed to explain the observed stereoselective control. Our work shows that chiral aldehyde catalysis based on a reversible imine formation principle is applicable for the α-functionalization of both amino acids and aryl methylamines, and holds potential to promote a range of asymmetric transformations diastereoselectively.

The asymmetric dehydrative intramolecular allylation reactions of furan and thiophene were performed using a cationic cyclopentadienyl-ruthenium (CpRu) complex of a chiral pyridine carboxylic acid, namely Cl-Naph-PyCOOH. Both furan and thiophene tethered with an allylic alcohol gave the corresponding bicyclic compounds in high yields and enantioselectivities using 0.1–5 mol% of catalyst. The reaction was found to proceed via a similar enantioface selection method mechanism to that previously reported by our group, which involved halogen and hydrogen bond formation, in addition to the generation of an intermediate σ-allyl complex.

Catalytic asymmetric [2 + 4] cycloadditions of 3-vinylindoles with ortho-quinone methides and their precursors were carried out in the presence of chiral phosphoric acid to afford a series of indole-containing chroman derivatives with structural diversity in overall high yields (up to 98%), good diastereoselectivities (up to 93:7 dr) and moderate to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee). This approach not only enriches the chemistry of catalytic asymmetric cycloadditions involving 3-vinylindoles but is also useful for synthesizing chiral chroman derivatives.
