NHC-catalysed retro-aldol/aldol cascade reaction enabling solvent-controlled stereodivergent synthesis of spirooxindoles

Haijun Leng et al.

Summary: The N-heterocyclic carbene-catalysed retro-aldol/aldol cascade reaction allows for the synthesis of spirocyclopentaneoxindole products with four consecutive stereocenters. By simply changing reaction solvents, diastereodivergent synthesis can be achieved. Selective provision of four stereoisomers can be achieved by using different combinations of a chiral secondary amine and a solvent.

Construction of a Benzo[b]azepine Skeleton through Decarboxylative Ylide [6+1] Annulations with Modified Vinyl Benzoxazinanones

Qing-Zhu Li et al.

Summary: A Lewis acid-promoted [6+1] annulation reaction between sulfur ylides and modified vinyl benzoxazinanones was successfully achieved, providing a facile and practical approach for constructing a benzo[b]azepine skeleton. The key to success in this reaction lies in the installation of an electron-withdrawing group on the alkene moiety of the benzoxazinanones, expanding the scope of compatible substrates in the mild reaction system.

Bispericyclic Diels-Alder Dimerization of ortho-Quinols in Natural Product (Bio)Synthesis: Bioinspired Chemical 6-Step Synthesis of (+)-Maytenone

Philippe A. Peixoto et al.

Summary: Many natural products are derived from enzymatic dearomative oxygenation of 2-alkylphenolic precursors into 6-alkyl-6-hydroxycyclohexa-2,4-dienones, which cyclodimerize via a bispericyclic Diels-Alder reaction. The involvement of catalytic or dirigent proteins in this process is still a question, but the cyclodimerization of ortho-quinols can be chemically reproduced in the laboratory with the same level of regioselectivity and stereoselectivity.

Synthesis of Bicyclo[2.2.2]octanes with a Quaternary Bridgehead Carbon by Diphenylprolinol Silyl Ether-mediated Domino Reaction

Nariyoshi Umekubo et al.

Summary: Bicyclo[2.2.2]octane derivatives with a quaternary bridgehead carbon were synthesized in nearly optically pure form with excellent diastereoselectivity using diphenylprolinol silyl ether mediated domino Michael/Michael reaction of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde and cyclohex-2-en-1-one containing an electron-withdrawing group at the 3-position. Carbonitrile, alkoxycarbonyl, and sulfonyl substituents proved to be effective electron-withdrawing groups at the 3-position of cyclohex-2-en-1-one.

Silver-Catalyzed Asymmetric Dearomatization of Electron-Deficient Heteroarenes via Interrupted Barton-Zard Reaction

Qian Wan et al.

Summary: In this study, a catalytic asymmetric dearomatization reaction of electron-deficient heteroarenes with alpha-substituted isocyanoacetates was reported, leading to a range of optically active pyrrolo[3,4-b]indole derivatives. The reaction yielded good results with high stereoselectivities, using a catalytic system consisting of a cinchona-derived amino-phosphine and silver oxide. This method features wide substrate scope, mild conditions, and provides a new strategy for developing asymmetric dearomatization reactions.
