Asymmetric intramolecular direct hydroarylation of α-ketoamides gives various types of optically active 3-substituted 3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles in high yields with complete regioselectivity and high enantioselectivities (84-98 % ee). This is realized by the use of the cationic iridium complex [Ir(cod) 2](BArF4) and the chiral O-linked bidentate phosphoramidite (R,R)-Me-BIPAM. Carbon's got a brand new bond: Asymmetric intramolecular direct hydroarylation of α-ketoamides gives various optically active 3-substituted 3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles in high yields with complete regioselectivity and high enantioselectivities. This is realized by the use of an asymmetric cationic iridium complex formed in situ (see Scheme).
