The increasing awareness of the importance of amide atropisomers prompts the development of novel strategies for their selective preparation. Described herein is a method for the enantioselective synthesis of atropisomeric aromatic amides by an amine-catalyzed arene-forming aldol condensation. The high reactivity of the glyoxylic amide substrates enables a remarkably efficient construction of a new aromatic ring, which proceeds within minutes at ambient temperature to afford products with excellent stereoselectivity. The high rotational barriers of the reduced products highlight the utility of this stable, spatially organized chiral scaffold.

Using dppe as the ligand, the Nickel-catalyzed decarbonylative cycloaddition of benzofuran-2,3-diones with alkynes was established, and a variety of functional flavones were synthesized in 65–99% yields. Terminal alkynes with substituted phenyl groups and internal alkynes such as aryl acyl acetylenes and diphenylacetylenes are suitable for this reaction. The effects of bases on the reactions of different types of alkyne substrates were also investigated and discussed. (Figure presented.).
