Abstract
A chiral amine catalyzed enantioselective α-functionalization of α-substituted β-ketocarbonyls with electron-deficient vinylarenes has been developed to construct the dicarbonyl products with the formation of a chiral all-carbon quaternary stereocenter. The products can be used for the efficient synthesis of useful but challenging chiral quaternary centered pyrazolones.
