ChemInform Abstract: Organocatalytic Asymmetric Aldol Reaction of Ketones with Isatins: Straightforward Stereoselective Synthesis of 3‐Alkyl‐3‐hydroxyindolin‐2‐ones.

Abstract

The strategy allows the enantioselective synthesis of a variety of target compounds with a stereogenic quaternary carbon center. An application of the procedure is represented in the synthesis of (S)-convolutamydine A (V). -(CHEN, J.-R.; LIU, X.-P.; ZHU, X.-Y.; LI, L.; QIAO, Y.-F.; ZHANG, J.-M.; XIAO
