Abstract The construction of N–N axially chiral motifs is an important research topic, owing to their wide occurrence in natural products, pharmaceuticals and ligands. One efficient method the atroposelective dihydropyrimidin-4-one formation. We present herein a direct catalytic synthesis atropisomers with simultaneous creation contiguous axial central chirality by oxidative NHC ( N -heterocyclic carbenes) catalyzed (3 + 3) cycloaddition. Using our method, we are able synthesize structurally diverse pyrroles indoles vicinal or bearing 2,3-dihydropyrimidin-4-one moiety moderate good yields excellent enantioselectivities. Further synthetic transformations obtained derivative products demonstrated. reaction mechanism origin enantioselectivity understood through DFT calculations.

Atropisomers bearing multiple stereogenic axes are of increasing importance to the field material science, pharmaceuticals, and catalysis. However, atroposelective construction multi-axis atropisomers remains rare challenging, due intrinsical difficulties in stereo-control axes.
