Abstract

A series of hybrid-type squaramide-fused amino alcohol (SFAA) catalysts were synthesized, and their catalytic efficiency in the enantioselective nitro-aldol reaction of various isatins with nitromethane has been described. This transformation afforded chiral 3-substituted 3-hydroxyoxindoles in excellent chemical yields (up to 99 %) with high enantioselectivities (up to 95 % ee). The resulting chiral 3-hydroxyoxindoles can be further used as synthetic precursors for the synthesis of several natural products that have a broad spectrum of fascinating biological activities.
