Diastereoselective tandem oxidation/Michael/aldol reaction: unprecedented formation of dispirocyclopentanebisoxindoles and dispiro[acenaphthylene-1,1′-cyclopentane-3′,1′′-acenaphthylene]-2,2′′diones

Abstract

An unprecedented tandem oxidation/Michael/aldol reaction is reported. The diastereoselective formation of only a single isomer of dispirocyclopentanebisoxindole and dispiro[acenaphthylene-1,1′-cyclopentane-3′,1′′-acenaphthylene]-2,2′′dione is presented. The reaction generates two new C–C bonds and two all-carbon quaternary chiral stereocenters in a single step.
