Asymmetric synthesis presents many challenges, with the selective formation of chiral bridged polyheterocycles being a notable example. Cycloadditions using bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCB) offer promising solution along those lines, yet, despite significant advances in that emerging area, asymmetric control has remained limited thus far. Here, we describe an organocatalytic, enantioselective formal (3 + 3)-cycloaddition BCBs 1H-indol-3-yl((hetero)aryl)methanol derivatives. This approach enables rapid and efficient tetrahydro-1H-1,3-methanocarbazole derivatives (34 examples) from readily available starting materials, very good stereochemical (up to 98:2 er). Successful scale-up experiments product modification demonstrated potential this methodology. Control DFT calculations provide insights into mechanistic pathway.

A combination experimental computational investigations lends robust support for proton-transfer-interposed sequential mechanism. More importantly, by integrating In(OTf)3/iridium relay catalysis, enantiopure 2-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes were constructed through aza-π-allyl-iridium in situ generated from N-allyl carbonates. Both methodologies exhibit mild reaction conditions good tolerance various functional groups.
