Chiral amines bearing a stereocenter in the α position are ubiquitous compounds with many applications in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors, as well as in catalysis. Catalytic asymmetric Mannich additions represent a valuable method to access such compounds in enantioenriched form. This work reports the first enantio- and diastereoselective addition of commercially available p-toluenesulfonylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) to ketimines, affording 2-imidazolines bearing two contiguous stereocenters, one of which is fully-substituted, with high yields and excellent stereocontrol. The reaction, catalyzed by silver oxide and a dihydroquinine-derived N,P-ligand, is broad in scope, operationally simple, and scalable. Derivatization of the products provides enantioenriched vicinal diamines, precursors to NHC ligands and sp3-rich heterocyclic scaffolds. Computations are used to understand catalysis and rationalize stereoselectivity.

The enantioselective Strecker reaction of N-diphenylphosphinoyl ketoimines has been achieved by use of in situ prepared chiral N,N′-dioxide catalyst from L-piperidinamide 3f and m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA). Excellent yields (up to 99%) and high enantioselectivities (up to 92% ee) were obtained. In particular, in situ prepared catalyst with readily available chiral material made the procedure more convenient. Moreover, the L-piperidinamide 3f-derived N,N′-dioxide 9 could be recycled and reused at least five times without any loss of either catalytic activity or enantioselectivity.
