A highly enantioselective aza-Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles with cyclic aryl alpha-ketimino esters catalyzed by a chiral phosphoric acid has been developed, the corresponding alpha,alpha-disubstituted unnatural alpha-amino ester derivatives were obtained in moderate to high yields (67-85%) with high enantioselectivities (up to 93% ee) under mild reaction conditions.
