A simple, direct, and highly enantioselective synthesis of spiro-oxindole piperidin-2-one derivatives was achieved through an aza-Michael/Michael cyclization cascade sequence using a squaramide catalyst. The desired products were obtained in excellent yields (up to 99%) and good to high stereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr and up to 99% ee) under mild conditions.

A newly developed SPD (spiro-pyrrolidine) organocatalyst has been demonstrated to enable an asymmetric aza-Michael/Michael/aldol cyclization cascade, in which two six-membered rings (B/C) and three stereocenters have been constructed in a catalytic one-step process. It is so far the most efficient method for construction of hydrophenanthridine derivatives featuring high enantioselectivity. The trans- or cis-fused B/C-rings can be selectively assembled in a substrate-controlled manner.

Switchable tandem intramolecular aza-Michael/Michael and double aza-Michael reactions allow the oriented synthesis of highly functionalised cyclic skeletons. Conjugate addition of deactivated anilines triggers chemo- and stereo-divergent ring-closure reaction pathways with a striking selectivity depending on reaction conditions.
