The stereospecific Fe-catalyzed arylation of enol tosylates was reported. Various tri- or tetrasubstituted Z or E-enol tosylates of β-keto esters were arylated using common and Knochel-type Grignard reagents with complete stereofidelity. The precursors fo

A photocatalytic E to Z isomerization of alkenes using an iridium photosensitizer under mild reaction conditions is disclosed. This method provides scalable and efficient access to Z-cinnamyl ether and allylic alcohol derivatives in high yields with excellent stereoselectivity. Importantly, this method also provides a powerful strategy for the selective synthesis of Z-magnolol and honokiol derivatives possessing potential biological activity.

We demonstrated a new approach for the sequential photouncaging of two different functional groups from o-hydroxycinnamate. The second caged molecule initially remains in the locked state and is released only after attaining its unlocked state upon in situ generation of the second phototrigger, i.e., coumarin, thereby leading to the sequential release of alcohol and carboxylic acid. We have utilised the above strategy for the controlled release of cosmeceutical agents.

A synthesis of non-racemic β-alkyl-β-aryl allyl alcohols and their transformation into allylamines bearing a quaternary stereogenic center is reported. The allyl alcohols were prepared either by Cu-catalyzed enantioselective reduction of enones or by sequ

Although iminium catalysis has become an important tool in organic chemistry, its combination with supramolecular host systems has remained largely unexplored. We report the detailed investigations into the first example of iminium catalysis inside a supramolecular host. In the case of 1,4-reductions of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, catalytic amounts of host are able to increase the enantiomeric excess of the products formed. Several control experiments were performed and provided strong evidence that the modulation of enantiomeric excess of the reaction product indeed stems from a reaction on the inside of the capsule. The origin of the increased enantioselectivity in the capsule was investigated. Furthermore, the substrate and nucleophile scope were studied. Kinetic investigations as well as the kinetic isotope effect measured confirmed that the hydride delivery to the substrate is the rate-determining step inside the capsule. The exploration of benzothiazolidines as alternative hydride sources revealed an unexpected substitution effect of the hydride source itself. The results presented confirm that the noncovalent combination of supramolecular hosts with iminium catalysis is opening up new exciting possibilities to increase enantioselectivity in challenging reactions.
Copper(I)-Catalyzed Allylic Substitutions with a Hydride Nucleophile

An easily accessible copper(I)/N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complex enables a regioselective hydride transfer to allylic bromides, an allylic reduction. The resulting aryl- and alkyl-substituted branched α-olefins, which are valuable building blocks for synthesis, are obtained in good yields and regioselectivity. A commercially available silane, (TMSO)2Si(Me)H, is employed as hydride source. This protocol offers a unified alternative to the established metal-catalyzed allylic substitutions with carbon nucleophiles, as no adaption of the catalyst to the nature of the nucleophile is required.

The noncovalent combination of a supramolecular host with iminium organocatalysis is described. Due to cation–π interactions the reactive iminium species is held inside the host and reacts in this confined environment. The products formed differ up to 92 % ee from the control experiments without added host. A model rationalizing the observed difference is presented.

An efficient and highly enantioselective copper-catalyzed allylic alkylation of disubstituted allyl halides with primary and secondary organolithium reagents using phosphoramidite ligands is reported. The use of trisubstituted allyl bromides allows, for the first time, the enantioselective synthesis of all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers with these reactive organometallic reagents.
Single-isomer trisubstituted olefins from a novel reaction of (E)-βchloro-α-iodo-α,β-unsaturated esters and amides

(Chemical Equation Presented) (E)-β-Chloro-α-iodo-α, β-unsaturated esters are converted to single isomer trisubstituted olefins bearing three different carbon substituents by cross-coupling under reflux. Mechanistic investigations suggest that this process transfers a hydrogen from the boronic acid to the α-position of the substrate and then introduces an aryl group to the β-position of the intermediate template while replacing chloride. The reaction is highly stereoselective, showing preference for the E-isomer. The process proceeds through (E)-β-chloro-α-aryl-α, β-unsaturated esters that are transformed efficiently into the corresponding E-products through stereoselective Suzuki-type reactions giving single isomers. The observed stereo-chemistry is apparently enabled by the intermediacy of a palladium allenoate. The reaction involves a catalytic cycle in which PdII is reduced to Pd0 through the formation of biaryl-coupled products.
