Cooperation is key! Chiral Brønsted acid/rhodium(II) cooperative catalysis enabled an enantioselective three-component aldol-type reaction of 3-diazo oxindoles and anilines with glyoxylates to give highly functionalized and structurally diverse 3-amino oxindoles in high stereoselectivity (>20:1 d.r., 99 % ee; see scheme).
