Axial chiral biaryl skeletons are widely found in biologically active molecules, catalysts and chiral functional materials. However, highly catalytic stereoselective synthesis of tetra-ortho-substituted biaryls remains a challenging task. In this paper, we describe an efficient approach for construction of axially tetra-ortho-substituted biaryls via Suzuki-Miyaura coupling in the presence of a chiral monophosphate ligand developed by ourselves. This method provides a variety of products in good enantioselectivities and good yields (up to 90.7:9.3 er and 82% yield) under mild conditions. Further control experiments indicate that the chiral side chain is crucial to the enantioselectivity.

Chartspiroton is a recently discovered naphthoquinone natural product that features a spiro-fused benzofuran lactone. We report its first synthesis via an 11-step linear sequence. The sterically hindered tetra--substituted biaryl subunit was installed by base-induced ring expansion of a readily available 1,3-indandione.

This Account presents an overview of a promising collection of phosphine ligands simply made from the modular Fischer indolization process and their applications in modern arylation processes. Using one easily accessible 2-arylindole scaffold, three major phosphino-moiety-positioned ligand series can be readily generated. We have attempted to explore challenging electrophilic and nucleophilic partners for the coupling reaction using the modular ligand tool.

Despite the great advancement in atroposelective synthesis in the past decades, the enantioselective synthesis of 2,2'-difluoro-1-biaryls is unprecedented. Herein, a palladium and chiral amino acid catalyzed atroposelective C-H olefination to construct the axially chiral 2,2'-difluoro-1-biaryls is reported. A variety of polyfluoro-substituted biaryls were forged under mild conditions in good yields with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee).
