In the presence of 5 mol% of commercially available chiral phosphine catalyst, the dearomative [3+2] annulation reaction proceeds smoothly to afford the corresponding dearomatized heterocycles in excellent yields (up to 98%) and enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). Meanwhile, this reaction features mild reaction conditions, excellent functional group tolerance, and the compatibility with gram-scale synthesis.
