title: A new type of bis(sulfonamide)-diamine ligand for a Cu(OTf)2-catalyzed asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction of indoles with nitroalkenes.
abstract: Chiral bis(sulfonamide)-diamine served as new type of ligand for a Cu(OTf)(2)-catalyzed asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction of indoles with nitroalkenes. The desired products were obtained with up to 99% yield and 97% ee.
