Abstract
Quinazolinones are common substructures in molecules of medicinal importance. We report an enantioselective copper-catalyzed borylative cyclization for the assembly of privileged pyrroloquinazolinone motifs. The reaction proceeds with high enantio- and diastereocontrol, and can deliver products containing quaternary stereocenters. The utility of the products is demonstrated through further manipulations.
