Azidobenziodazolones as Azido Sources for the Enantioselective Copper-Catalyzed Azidation of -Unprotected 3-Trifluoromethylated Oxindoles.

Both azido (N) and trifluoromethyl (CF) groups are key moieties of numerous valuable molecules that are extensively applied in drug discovery, chemical biology, and synthetic chemistry. However, the asymmetric construction of chiral quaternary stereocenters bearing both N and CF groups is still unexplored. Herein, we report a kind of bench-stable and easily adjustable benziodazolone-based azidating reagents.
