Abstract
A chiral N-2,3,4,5-tetrafluoro-6-iodobenzyl-N-sulfonyl aminomethylpyrrolidine tetrafluoroacetic acid salt was designed as an iodinated enamine organocatalyst for the enantioselective Michael/hemiaminal formation cascade reaction of α,β-unsaturated iminoindoles with aldehydes. The use of this iodinated enamine catalyst furnished anti-α-carbolinol derivatives in high yields and high stereoselectivities.
