Carbene-catalyzed activation of remote nitrogen atoms of (Benz)imidazole-derived aldimines for enantioselective synthesis of heterocycles

A new mode of carbene-catalyzed heteroatom activation and asymmetric reactions is disclosed. The reaction starts with addition of a carbene catalyst to a (benz)imidazole-derived aldimine substrate. Subsequent oxidation and proton transfer lead to the formation of a catalyst-bound triaza-diene as the...
