The construction of atropisomers with 1,2-diaxes, while maintaining high enantiocontrol, presents a significant challenge due to the dynamic nature steric hindrance at ortho-aryl substituents. Although various catalytic asymmetric methods have been developed for accessing axially chiral arylpyrroles, synthesis arylpyrroles 1,2-diaxes in manner has remained rare. Herein, authors report diverse and C-C C-N axes through copper-catalysed asymmetirc [4 + 1] annulation yne-allylic esters arylamines via remote stereocontrol strategy. This approach provides facile access broad range heterobiaryl (67 examples) excellent enantioselectivities, each bearing one or two C-C/C-N axes, demonstrating its versatility efficiency. utility this methodology is further highlighted by transformation product into phosphine ligand, thioureas use catalysis.

Transition-metal-catalyzed [2 + 2 2] annulation of alkynes is an efficient pathway for the synthesis aromatic compounds. However, most established methods require noble metal catalysts. Herein, we report a copper-catalyzed intermolecular diynes with through vinyl cation intermediates, enabling atom-economical preparation biologically important carbazole skeletons. The reaction shows good regioselectivity in aryl(alkyl)alkynes. Moreover, preliminary results have also been obtained related catalytic atroposelective transformation. This represents rare example non-noble-metal-catalyzed ynamides pathway.
