Palladium‐N‐Heterocyclic Carbene (NHC)‐Catalyzed Asymmetric Synthesis of Indolines Through Regiodivergent C(sp3)—H Activation: Scope and DFT Study.

The Pd-catalyzed asymmetric cyclization reaction of substrates (I) and (IV) provides two regioisomeric products with low to excellent enantioselectivities.
