Axially Chiral Dibenzazepinones by a Palladium(0)-Catalyzed Atropo-enantioselective C-H Arylation
Atropo‐enantioselective C−H functionalization reactions are largely limited to the dynamic kinetic resolution of biaryl substrates through the introduction of steric bulk proximal to the axis of chirality. Reported herein is a highly atropo‐enantioselective palladium(0)‐catalyzed methodology that forges the axis of chirality during the C−H functionalization process, enabling the synthesis of axially chiral dibenzazepinones. Computational investigations support experimentally determined racemization barriers, while also indicating C−H functionalization proceeds by an enantio‐determining CMD to yield configurationally stable eight‐membered palladacycles.
