A series of rhodium complexes bearing sterically and electronically tunable cyclopentadienyl ligands, prepared by utilizing Co2(CO)8-mediated [2+2+1] cyclization as a key step, were synthesized. In the presence of 2.5 mol% of CpmRh4, unprecedented enantioselective [4+1] annulation reaction of benzamides and alkenes was achieved with a broad substrate scope under mild reaction conditions, providing a variety of isoindolinones with excellent regio-and enantioselectivity (up to 94% yield, 97:3 er). Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction involves an oxidative Heck reaction and an intramolecular enantioselective alkene hydroamination reaction.

The rapid development of enantioselective C?H activation reactions has created a demand for new types of catalysts. Herein, we report the synthesis of a novel planar-chiral rhodium catalyst [(C5H2tBu2CH2tBu)RhI2]2 in two steps from commercially available [(cod)RhCl]2 and tert-butylacetylene. Pure enantiomers of the catalyst were obtained through separation of its diastereomeric adducts with natural (S)-proline. The catalyst promoted enantioselective reactions of aryl hydroxamic acids with strained alkenes to give dihydroisoquinolones in high yields (up to 97 %) and with good stereoselectivity (up to 95 % ee).
