The first catalytic asymmetric reaction of azonaphthalene with pyrazolone has been established. A wide range of axially chiral pyrazole derivatives have been achieved in good yields (68-99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (83-98% ee) by utilizing chiral phosphoric acid as a catalyst. This strategy provides an efficient and facile approach for the construction of axially chiral pyrazole derivatives. Theoretical calculations were carried out to elucidate the origins of enantioselectivity.
