An efficient enantioselective dearomatization of 2-nitrobenzofurans was realized via an organocatalyzed one-step Michael addition process. This method provides a facile strategy to access a range of structurally diverse 3,3′-disubstituted oxindoles, which feature an intriguing combination of two privileged motifs including 3-pyrrolyl-substituted-oxindoles and 2,3-dihydrobenzofurans substructures, in excellent results.

Intermolecular asymmetric dearomative 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 2-nitrobenzofurans with azomethine ylides was enabled by using a chiral Cu(i)/(S,Sp)-iPr-Phosferrox catalyst. As a result, a series of highly stereoselective chiral [2,3]-fused hydrobenzofurans possessing four contiguous stereogenic centers were obtained with good to high yields, diastereoselectivities and enantioselectivities. The reaction has broad substrate scope tolerating various functional groups.

The phosphine-catalyzed asymmetric dearomative [3+2] cycloaddition of 2-nitrobenzofurans with aldehyde-derived Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) carbonates or allenoate was developed. The reaction with MBH carbonates resulted in a series of cyclopentabenzofurans containing three contiguous stereocenters with good to high yields, diastereoselectivities and enantioselectivities. The use of allenoate also gave the target product with moderate enantioselectivity.

Stereoselective construction of highly functionalized heterocyclic molecules is an ongoing concern for the chemical community. Among the various strategies developed with this goal, catalytic asymmetric dearomatization, an attractive method for constucting cyclic molecules with multiple stereocenters from readily available aromatic compounds, has received extensive attention in recent years. Here, we report a highly stereoselective construction of tetrahydrofurobenzofurans and tetrahydrofurobenzothiophenes via palladium-catalyzed dearomative [3 + 2] cycloaddition of nitrobenzofurans and nitrobenzothiophenes, respectively. Good to excellent yields (63%–92%), diastereoselectivity (13/1 → >20/1 dr), and enantioselectivity (75%–95% ee) were obtained, leading to products with vicinal stereogenic carbon centers. The reaction features wide substrate scope and diverse transformations of the products.
