The efficient stereoselective synthesis of conjugated dienes, especially those with axial chirality, remains a great challenge. Herein, we report the highly atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral styrenes with a conjugated 1,3-diene scaffold via a Pd(II)-catalyzed thioether-directed alkenyl C-H olefination strategy. This strategy features easy operation, mild reaction conditions, high functional group tolerance (69 examples), complete Z-selectivity, and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). Notably, the highly enantioselective synthesis of atropisomers with two stereogenic axes were also achieved using this strategy (up to 99% ee and 97:3 dr). Moreover, the reaction could be scaled up, and the resulting axially chiral styrenes could be easily oxidized into chiral sulfoxide derivatives with high diastereoselectivities, which showed great promise as a new type of sulfur-olefin ligand.

The addition of arylstannanes to the carbon-heteroatom double bond in the presence of a catalytic amount of a cationic rhodium complex ([Rh(cod)(MeCN)2]BF4) was examined. The reactions of aldehydes, α-dicarbonyl compounds, and N-substituted aldimines with the arylstannanes gave corresponding alcohols, α-hydroxy carbonyl compounds, and amines, respectively. An arylrhodium complex generated by the transmetalation with the arylstannane was probably the active catalytic species.

Cationic electrocyclization of α-benzoyldiphenylmethanols in the presence of superacid provides fluorenes, phenanthrols and benzofurans in good to moderate yields. A single substitution leads to regioselective cationic electrocyclizations.

Intramolecular and intermolecular ketone-ester reductive coupling reactions promoted by SmI2 have been studied. Substituted 2-hydroxy-5-ethoxycarbonylcyclopentanones, 5-ethoxycarbonylcyclopentenones and α-ketols were prepared in moderate to good yields at room temperature or under reflux under neutral conditions.
