ee (Scheme 2.85). They obtained the X‐ray crystallographic analysis of heterodimer 36 between CPA 6e and acetic acid, and proposed the heterodimeric association of a carboxylic acid with CPA as a new activation principle for organocatalysis. The carboxylic acid plays a dual role in the reaction by both accomplishing the ring‐opening reaction and protecting the catalyst from degradation [172].

List reported an enantioselective oxidation of sulfide catalyzed by confined Brønsted acid 10a to furnish sulfoxides with 85–98% ee (Scheme 2.86) [173].

List reported an enantioselective transformation of oxirane to thiiranes using chiral phosphoric acid 6e in the presence of thioamide. Both oxiranes and thiiranes were obtained with 85–99% ee and 76–95% ee, respectively, by the kinetic resolution (Scheme 2.87). Formation of the initial heterodimer 37 between CPA 6e and the sulfur donor was proposed [174].

2.11. CONSTRUCTION OF AXIALLY, PLANAR, AND HELICALLY CHIRAL COMPOUNDS
There are numerous recent reports on the enantioselective construction of axially chiral [175] and planar chiral compounds recently, but those topics will not be discussed here. Please see Chapter 19 [176] for axially chiral compounds and Chapter 20 [177] for planar chiral compounds.
2.12. COMBINATION WITH TRANSITION METAL CATALYSTS [25–27]
Chiral Brønsted acid may be employed in combination with metal catalysts. Several kinds of combination are reported such as cooperative catalysis and relay catalysis. We already discussed some asymmetric reactions involving the combination of chiral Brønsted acid and metal catalysts in the previous sections, but we will briefly show several representative reactions in this section.
List reported an enantioselective α‐allylation of aldehyde by the combined use of CPA and Pd(PPh3)4. Enamine, generated in situ from aldehyde and allylic amine, reacted with π‐allyl palladium intermediate 37 bearing chiral counteranion to afford adducts with 97% ee (Scheme 2.88) [178]. List developed an asymmetric counteranion‐directed catalysis (ACDC) strategy [23], and employed chiral phosphate anion as the chiral counteranion for a range of transformations.

You reported enantioselective synthesis of polycyclic indoles, such as tetrahydropyrano[3,4‐b] indoles and tetrahydro‐β‐carbolines, through olefin cross‐metathesis and subsequent intramolecular Friedel‐Crafts alkylation reaction using the dual catalysis system of Ru complex 38 and CPA 6o (Scheme 2.89) [179]. The use of readily available starting materials can make the synthesis of polycyclic indoles more practical and economical.

Hu and Gong developed a cooperative catalysis system using CPA 6o and Rh2(OAc)4 to realize a three‐component reaction between diazo ester, alcohol, and imine that generated syn‐β‐amino‐α‐hydroxy acid with excellent diastereoselectivity and with 93% ee (Scheme 2.90) [180]. This reaction proceeded through the generation of oxonium ylide intermediate 40 from diazo ester and Rh2(OAc)4 by way of Rh carbene species, and the subsequent reaction with imine, which was activated by CPA [181].

Hu recently reported the fluoroalkyl‐substituted syn‐diamines by the gem‐difluoro functionalization of 2,2,2‐trifluorodiazoethane, which could be efficiently converted into a series of fluoroalkyl‐substituted structures by the cooperative system of CPA 6b and iron porphyrin complex (FeTPPCl) (Scheme 2.91) [182]. Trifluorodiazoethane reacted with FeTPPCl to give the nonconjugated Fe carbene, which reacted with aniline to give free ylide. Subsequent reaction with imine furnished expected product.

Hu reported a Pd(II)/CPA 6b catalyzed three‐component reaction between aryldiazoacetate, enamines, and imines to afford α‐amino‐δ‐oxo pentanoic acid derivatives (Scheme 2.92a) [183]. Phenyldiazoacetate reacted with Pd salt to form Pd carbene intermediate, which reacted with aniline to generate Pd enolate. Subsequent aza‐Michael reaction with iminium salt of chalcone derivatives and hydrolysis furnished the adducts (Scheme 2.92b).
