Among all of them, spirocyclic pyrazolones and 4-amino-5-pyrazolone derivatives belong to a wide family of compounds with well-known pharmacological properties (antitumoral, analgesic). Due to this, chemists have devoted efforts to the asymmetric synthesis of these compounds. Whereas pyrazolin-5-ones and unsaturated pyrazolones have been extensively used as starting materials in asymmetric reactions, pyrazolin-4,5-diones and their corresponding N-Boc ketimines derivatives have hardly been used. On the other hand, asymmetric organocatalysis constitutes one of the most useful, effective and eco-friendly strategies for the asymmetric synthesis of organic compounds, and, because of this, it is a growing field.Consequently, the main objective in this Doctoral Thesis is the development of new methods for the asymmetric synthesis of spirocyclic pyrazolones and 4-amino-5-pirazolone derivatives from pyrazolin-4,5-diones and their N-Boc ketimines derivatives. Two different strategies will be used: covalent catalysis, by using chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes, and hydrogen bonding catalysis through the use of chiral bifunctional squaramides.
