A copper-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular reductive cyclization for the synthesis of dibenzo[<i>b</i>,<i>d</i>]azepines is described. Use of 2'-vinyl-biaryl-2-imines as substrates and <i>in situ</i> formed [Cu<sup>I</sup>/(Ph-BPE)] as the catalyst enables the synthesis of 7-membered bridged biarylamines containing both central and axial stereogenic elements in high yields (up to 98%) and with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivities (>20 : 1 d.r., up to 99% ee). Moreover, the same cataly ...[more]
