A highly efficient palladium-catalyzed asymmetric tandem aza-Heck/Sonogashira coupling reaction of O-phenyl hydroxamic ethers with terminal alkynes is described. This protocol enables versatile access to challenging chiral isoindolinone derivatives bearing a quaternary stereogenic center. The palladium-catalyzed aminoalkynylation reaction shows broad functional group tolerance and allows the straightforward preparation of isoindolinones with high efficiency and excellent enantioselectivity under mild conditions. DFT calculations were performed to disclose the reaction mechanism and the origins of the enantioselectivity.
