The cycloaddition reaction of a suitably substituted indolyl benzylic alcohol with an ethyl 3-indoleacrylate catalyzed by phos-phoric acids derived from (S)-BINOL was described. When the chiral phosphoric acid bearing α-naphthyl at 3,3'-positions of the binaphthyl was used as a catalyst, pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole derivatives with three contiguous stereocenters were obtained in high yield up to 91%, with good to high diastereoselectivity (9/1~20/1 dr) and enantioselectivity (62%~92% ee for the major dia-stereoisomer).

Key words: cycloaddition, organocatalysis, heterocycles, enantioselectivity
