A new class of axially chiral styrene-based thiourea tertiary amine catalysts, which have unique characteristics such as an efficient synthetic route, multiple elements, and activating groups, has been rationally designed. These catalysts proven to be organocatalysts, enabling the chemo-, diastereo-, enantioselective (2+4) cyclization 2-benzothiazolimines with homophthalic anhydrides in good yields (up 96 %) excellent stereoselectivities (all >95:5 dr, up 98 % ee). More importantly, theoretical calculations elucidated important role styrene moiety controlling both reactivity enantioselectivity. This work not only represents first design catalytic asymmetric 2-benzothiazolimines, but also gives in-depth understanding organocatalysts.

Silaspiranes have attracted particular attention due to their chiral spiro-silicon center, which serves as an ideal carbon isostere and can endow spiro-analogs with distinct properties. Distinct from previously reported cyclization or cycloaddition strategies form 5/5-silaspiranes, we report herein the asymmetric dual ring expansion of spirosilabicyclobutanes alkynes synthesize axially spirosilabicyclohexenes bearing a novel 6/6-silaspirane framework. DFT (density functional theory) calculations provide deep insight into origin high enantioselectivity controlled by sterically demanding binaphthyl phosphoramidite ligand. Preliminary studies chiroptical properties indicate that one spirosilabicyclohexene analogs exhibit fluorescence emission, Cotton effects CPL (circularly polarized luminescence) activity.
