A cinchona-alkaloid-derived chiral primary-amine-catalyzed enantioselective method for the synthesis of the thermodynamically less stable indanedione-fused 2,6-trans-disubstituted spirocyclohexanones is demonstrated. Both the enantiomeric forms of the trans isomer are obtained in excellent yields and enantioselectivities. Furthermore, one of the enantiopure trans-spiranes bearing an additional α-substitution on the cyclohexanone ring was then epimerized into its thermodynamically stable cis counterpart, with little loss of enantioselectivity to demonstrate the feasibility of such a transformation. Mechanistic investigations revealed two competing pathways, a concerted Diels-Alder reaction and a stepwise Michael addition, for the formation of corresponding products.

The asymmetric domino three-component Knoevanagel-Diels-Alder addition (ATCDA) reaction, as an important methodology, has been utilized to construct complex product from ordinary starting materials. In this report, many typical organoamine catalysts were investigated to achieve highly efficient asymmetric three-component reaction of enones 2, aldehydes 3 and Meldrum's acid 4. Various pharmacological multi-substituted spiro[5,5]undecane-1,5,9-triones promoted by 9-amino-9-deoxy-epi-quinine 1 g in one-pot, were obtained in moderate to good yields (up to 81%) with excellent diastereo-(>99:1 dr) and enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee). Meanwhile, based on the controlled experiments and analytical data, a reasonable mechanism of dual-activity for this reaction has been proposed.
