The interception of catalytically generated chiral alpha,beta-unsaturated acylazoliums with the indole derivatives proceeds in an aza-Michael/Michael/lactonization sequence to deliver the pyrroloquinoline derivatives in good yields, diastereoselectivities, and enantioselectivities. The simultaneous enhancement of reactivity and selectivity observed in polar aprotic solvents is noteworthy.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">22</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article </style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.492</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gelat, Fabien</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patra, Atanu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pannecoucke, Xavier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biju, Akkattu T.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Poisson, Thomas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Besset, Tatiana</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">N-Heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed synthesis of alpha-trifluoromethyl esters</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Organic Letters</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUL</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3897-3901</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of alpha-chloro aldehydes was developed, allowing straightforward access to valuable alpha-trifluoromethyl ester derivatives. The unique combination of an electrophilic trifluoromethylation reagent with NHC catalysis was the key for the functionalization of a broad range of alpha-chloro aldehydes, and the products are formed in moderate to good yields. Investigations of the enantioselective version of this reaction afforded the enantioenriched products in moderate yields with good ee values.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.579</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patra, Atanu</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gelat, Fabien</style></author></secondary-authors><tertiary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pannecoucke, Xavier</style></author></tertiary-authors><subsidiary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Poisson, Thomas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Besset, Tatiana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biju, Akkattu T.</style></author></subsidiary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Synthesis of 4-difluoromethylquinolines by NHC-catalyzed umpolung of imines</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"> Organic Letters</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JAN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1086–1089</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed umpolung of aldimines for the synthesis of 4-difluoromethylquinoline derivatives is reported. In the presence of NHCs, the intramolecular cyclization of aldimines bearing a moderately electron-poor double bond due to the presence of the −CF3 group likely proceeds via the intermediacy of the aza-Breslow intermediate. The key to the success of this aza-Stetter type transformation is the NHC generated from the bicyclic triazolium salt using DBU as the base.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.579</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
