A new electron-deficient chiral triazolium salt has been shown to catalyze the formation of quaternary stereocenters by an asymmetric intramolecular Stetter reaction. Pentafluorophenyl substitution on an aminoindanol-derived catalyst affords tertiary ether, thioether, and quaternary stereocenters in typically greater than 90% ee and very good chemical yield. Aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes are equally competent substrates for this reaction. The reaction proceeds at room temperature under mild conditions to provide quaternary stereocenters with functional group relationships that are particularly difficult to access by other methods.
