Preserved Fulltext
The electrophilic intermediate, vinylogous imine or vinylogous iminium, can be in situ generated from 3-indolylmethanols under acidic conditions. With the aid of chiral catalysts, miscellaneous nucleophiles can attack these electrophilic intermediates to afford enantioenriched and biologically important 3-substituted indole derivatives. The recent advances of preparation of optically active indole derivatives from 3-indolylmethanols via asymmetric alkylation, asymmetric reduction and asymmetric rearrangement are summarized.
