ANOTACE
The first organocatalytic asymmetric assembly of Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates of isatins and α-angelica lactone has been studied, affording multifunctional products containing two valuable pharmacophores and vicinal quaternary chiral centers in high stereoselectivity (up to 92% ee, dr >95:5).
