TL;DR
The catalytic enantioselective synthesis of all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers in spirocyclic diketones has been achieved for the first time by an unprecedented asymmetric vinylogous alpha-ketol rearrangement in which an enantiocontrolled semipinacol-type 1,2-carbon migration was realized using multifunctional cinchona-modified primary amine catalysis.
