Mono- and di-addition of silylnitronates and nitrile oxides is a useful procedure for functionalizing butadiene leading to cyano and acyl derivatives.A novel route to 2,5-disubstituted furans is also established.The potential of the method in carbohydrate synthesis is pointed out.The route via 2-isoxazoline is shown to be a useful alternative to aldol-type reactions in organic synthesis. 15a has been studied by X-ray diffraction and shown to be meso form.

Direct aerobic α,β-dehydrogenation of γ, δ-unsaturated amides and acids using a simple iridium/copper relay catalysis system is described. We developed a new strategy that overcomes the challenging issue associated with the low α-acidity of amides and acids. Instead of α-C-H metalation, this reaction proceeds by β-C-H activation, which results in enhanced α-acidity. Conjugated dienamides and dienoic acids were synthesized in excellent yield with this reaction, which uses a simple reaction protocol. Mechanistic experiments suggest a catalyst resting state mechanism in which both α-C-H and β-C-H cleavage is accelerated.

Using cinchona alkaloid-derived primary amines as catalysts and aqueous hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant, we have developed highly enantioselective Weitz-Scheffer-type epoxidation and hydroperoxidation reactions of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (up to 99.5:0.5 er). In this article, we present our full studies on this family of reactions, employing acyclic enones, 5-15-membered cyclic enones, and α-branched enals as substrates. In addition to an expanded scope, synthetic applications of the products are presented. We also report detailed mechanistic investigations of the catalytic intermediates, structure-activity relationships of the cinchona amine catalyst, and rationalization of the absolute stereoselectivity by NMR spectroscopic studies and DFT calculations.
