- Asymmetric Catalysis via Cyclic, Aliphatic Oxocarbenium Ions
-
A direct enantioselective synthesis of substituted oxygen heterocycles from lactol acetates and enolsilanes has been realized using a highly reactive and confined imidodiphosphorimidate (IDPi) catalyst. Various chiral oxygen heterocycles, including tetrahydrofurans, tetrahydropyrans, oxepanes, chromans, and dihydrobenzofurans, were obtained in excellent enantioselectivities by reacting the corresponding lactol acetates with diverse enol silanes. Mechanistic studies suggest the reaction to proceed via a nonstabilized, aliphatic, cyclic oxocarbenium ion intermediate paired with the confined chiral counteranion.

- Copper-Catalyzed Formation of C-O Bonds by Oxidative Coupling of Benzylic Alcohols with Ethers
-
The copper-catalyzed formation of C-O bonds by oxidative coupling of benzylic alcohols with ethers was realized in open air. A series of α-acyloxy ethers were obtained in good yields with aqueous tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant.
