An asymmetric [3 + 2] annulation reaction of 4-isothiocyanato pyrazolones with alkynyl ketones in the presence of an organic catalyst derived from a cinchona alkaloid under mild conditions is realized. This protocol provides unprecedented expeditious access to a wide range of optically active spiro[pyrroline-pyrazolones] with various electronic properties in high yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities.

The first general catalytic enantioselective conjugate addition of cyanide to β, β-disubstituted α,β-unsaturated ketones and N-acylpyrroles was developed using a strontium catalyst derived from Sr(O iPr)2 and new chiral ligand 5. The reaction exhibited excellent enantioselectivity and a wide substrate scope using 0.5-10 mol % catalyst. 1,4-Adducts containing β-quaternary carbons were exclusively produced over 1,2-adducts. ESI-MS analysis of the strontium catalyst indicated that the active catalyst was a trimetallic Sr/5 = 3:5 complex. The exclusive 1,4-selectivity was partly due to the ability of the strontium complex to promote both a retro-cyanation reaction from the 1,2-adducts and highly enantioselective conjugate cyanation.
