Ligand-controlled reactivity plays an important role in transition-metal catalysis, enabling a vast number of efficient transformations to be discovered and developed. However, a single ligand is generally used to promote all steps of the catalytic cycle (e.g., oxidative addition, reductive elimination), a requirement that makes ligand design challenging and limits its generality, especially in relay asymmetric transformations. We hypothesized that multiple ligands with a metal center might be used to sequentially promote multiple catalytic steps, thereby combining complementary catalytic reactivities through a simple combination of simple ligands. With this relay catalysis strategy (L/L?), we report here the first highly regio- and enantioselective remote hydroarylation process. By synergistic combination of a known chain-walking ligand and a simple asymmetric cross-coupling ligand with the nickel catalyst, enantioenriched α-aryl alkylboronates could be rapidly obtained as versatile synthetic intermediates through this formal asymmetric remote C(sp3)-H arylation process.

The family of anti-fungal natural products known as the ambruticins are structurally distinguished by a pair of pyran rings adorning a divinylcyclopropane core. Previous characterization of their biosynthesis, including the expression of a genetically modified producing organism, revealed that the polyketide synthase pathway proceeds via a diol intermediate, known as ambruticin J. Herein, we report the first enantioselective total synthesis of the putative PKS product, ambruticin J, according to a triply convergent synthetic route featuring a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling and a Julia-Kocienski olefination for fragment assembly. This synthesis takes advantage of synthetic methodology previously developed by our laboratory for the stereoselective generation of the trisubstituted cyclopropyl linchpin.
Synthesis of enantiopure cyclic amino acid derivatives via a sequential diastereoselective Petasis reaction/ring closing olefin metathesis process

A novel approach to the synthesis of enantiopure cyclic amino esters is reported. The utilization of allylboronic acid together with (S)-α-methylbenzylamine as a chiral auxiliary in the Petasis/Mannich reaction led to the formation of allylglycine derivatives in good yield and with high diastereoselectivity. Subsequent esterification, N-allylation followed by ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reaction enabled the preparation of enantiomerically pure cyclic α-amino acid derivatives.
