Palladium-Catalyzed Diastereoselective Synthesis of Isoindolinones

Abstract
2-Bromobenzaldehyde reacts diastereoselectively with chiral alkanolamines under carbon monoxide in the presence of a catalytic amount of bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) chloride to afford the corresponding tricyclic isoindolinones in moderate to good yields.
