We report here a Ru-catalyzed enantioselective synthesis of biaryl-bridged NH lactams through asymmetric reductive amination and a spontaneous ring-closing cascade from keto esters and NH4OAc with H2 as reductant. The reaction features broad substrate generality and high enantioselectivities (up to >99percent ee). To showcase the practical utility, a highly enantioselective synthesis of 5-ethylindolobenzazepinone C, a promising antimitotic agent, has been rapidly completed. Furthermore, the amide group in the products enables versatile elaborations through directed C-H functionalization.

This work reports the synthesis of new axially chiral bridged 2,2′-bipyridines 1 and pyridylmonooxazolines (pymox) 2. The potential of these new axially chiral N,N-ligands was evaluated in asymmetric catalytic cyclopropanation of styrene derivatives 22a-c with diazoesters 21a,b. While 2,2′-bipyridines 1a-c afforded the corresponding cyclopropanes 23a-f in up to 65% ee, pymoxs 2a-e gave somewhat lower enantioselectivities (up to 53% ee). Both classes of ligands produced trans-cyclopropanes 23a-f as the major isomer, although with modest diasteroselectivities (56: 44 to 78: 22). A structure-stereoselectivity relationship study of ligands 1 and 2 identified the chiral biaryl axis as being mostly responsible for the enantioselective performances of these ligands.
