文摘A highly efficient enantioselective construction of heterobiaryl N-oxides was developed.A series of axially chiral heterobiaryl N-oxides were generated via the cascade reaction of aminobenzamides with heterobiaryl aldehydes in the presence of chiral phosphoric acids.A number of atropisomers were afforded in moderate to good yields with excellent enantioselectivities and diastereoselectivities.Preliminary results demonstrate that the heterobiaryl N-oxides can be utilized as efficient chiral ligands in asymmetric catalysis.
