Unexpected chiral vicinal tetrasubstituted diamines via borylcopper-mediated homocoupling of isatin imines

Addressing the asymmetric synthesis of oxindole-based α-aminoboronic acids, instead of the expected products we disclosed the efficient homocoupling of oxindole-based N-tert-butanesulfinyl imines, with the generation of chiral, quaternary 1,2-diamines in a mild and completely stereoselective way.

description Addressing the asymmetric synthesis of oxindole-based α-aminoboronic acids, instead of the expected products we disclosed the efficient homocoupling of oxindole-based N-tert-butanesulfinyl imines, with the generation of chiral, quaternary 1,2-diamines in a mild and completely stereoselective way. The obtained 3,3′-bisoxindole derivatives were fully characterized by NMR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and proved to be single diastereoisomers and atropisomers. A plausible mechanism for the one-pot Cu(II)-catalyzed Bpin addition to the isatin-derived ketimine substrate and subsequent homocoupling is described.
