The cascade cyclization reactions of 1,5-bisallenes grant access to a great variety of products by precisely tuning the catalyst system and/or the reagents involved. Herein, we present our findings that 1,5-bisallenes react with two molecules of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to afford, in a completely diastereoselective manner, cis-3,4-arylvinyl pyrrolidines and cyclopentanes. DFT calculations have been used to postulate a mechanism for the developed reaction which encompasses a [2+2+2] cycloaddition reaction of the two alkynes and the external double bond of one allene, followed by a cycloisomerization involving the internal double bond of the second allene.

A capture reaction of hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) derived benzyne with various substituted oxazoles is reported. With methyl, hydrogen, or phenyl as the substituent at 2-position of oxazole, tetraynes afforded epoxyanthracene derivatives or underwent dicarbonylation on benzene ring. The reaction does not require any catalyst or additive. The mechanism behind the reaction was investigated. The obtained polycyclic product structure has potential application value in optoelectronic materials. The availability of dicarbonylated arene implies the uniqueness of HDDA benzyne reaction compared with traditional benzyne.

Described herein is an enantioselective dirhodium(II)-catalyzed cycloisomerization of diynes achieved by the strategy of desymmetrization, which not only represents a new cycloisomerization reaction of diynes but also constitutes the first Rh(II)-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular cycloisomerization of 1,6-diynes. This protocol provides a range of valuable furan-fused dihydropiperidine derivatives with an enantiomerically enriched alkynyl-substituted aza-quaternary stereocenter in high efficiency, complete atom economy, and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 98% ee). Besides, the highly functionalized products could be easily transformed into various synthetically useful building blocks and conjugated with a series of pharmaceutical molecules. The mechanism involving a concerted [3+2] cycloaddition/[1,2]-H shift of the Rh(II) carbenoid intermediate was elucidated by DFT calculations and mechanistic studies. More importantly, the first single crystal of alkyne-dirhodium(II) was obtained to show that a η2-coordinating activation of alkynal by dirhodium(II) was involved. Weak hydrogen bondings between the carboxylate ligands and alkynal were found, which probably made the well-defined paddlewheel-like dirhodium(II) distinctive from other metal complexes in catalyzing this transformation. Furthermore, the origin of the enantioselectivity was elucidated by a Rh2(R-PTAD)4-alkyne complex and additional calculational studies.

An unprecedented C═C double bond cleavage of cyclopropenone and dioxygen activation by multiyne cascade coupling has been developed. This chemistry provides a novel, simple, and efficient approach to synthesize fully substituted conjugate benzofuran derivatives from simple substrates under mild conditions. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the unique homolytic cleavages of cyclopropenone and molecular oxygen are crucial to the success of this reaction.

Rhodium-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cycloadditions, sulfonyl phthalide annulations and nitroalkene reactions have been employed for the synthesis of 56 quinone-based compounds. These were evaluated against Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite that causes Chagas disease. The reactions described here are part of a program that aims to utilize modern, versatile and efficient synthetic methods for the one or two step preparation of trypanocidal compounds. We have identified 9 compounds with potent activity against the parasite; 3 of these were 30-fold more potent than benznidazole (Bz), a drug used for the treatment of Chagas disease. This article provides a comprehensive outline of reactions involving over 120 compounds aimed at the discovery of new quinone-based frameworks with activity against T. cruzi.
