Syntheses of (+)-goniopypyrone and (+)-goniotriol isolated from Goniothalamus giganteus were achieved. The key steps involve Pd-catalyzed carbonylation for lactone ring formation and diastereoselective reduction of ynone using the (R)-CBS catalyst and borane dimethyl sulfide complex.

The two enantiomers of 2,2′-bioxirane were synthesized, and their chiroptical properties were thoroughly investigated in various solvents by polarimetry, vibrational circular dichroism (VCD), and Raman optical activity (ROA). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ level revealed the presence of three conformers (G+, G?, and cis) with Gibbs populations of 51, 44, and 5% for the isolated molecule, respectively. The population ratios of the two main conformers were modified for solvents exhibiting higher dielectric constants (G? form decreases whereas G+ form increases). The behavior of the specific optical rotation values with the different solvents was correctly reproduced by time-dependent DFT calculations using the polarizable continuum model (PCM), except for the benzene for which explicit solvent model should be necessary. Finally, VCD and ROA spectra were perfectly reproduced by the DFT/PCM calculations for the Boltzmann-averaged G+ and G? conformers.

A new family of tartaric acid derived chiral iminophosphoranes has been developed as highly effective organocatalysts in the asymmetric chlorinations of 3-substituted oxindoles with a high level of enantioselectivity. Importantly, these catalysts are air- and moisture-stable. Recovery of the catalyst after simple chromatographic separation for reuse in the model reaction was achieved; the catalyst can be recycled six times without loss of any enantioselectivity. Several advantages of this catalytic process are high conversion after a very short reaction time at ambient temperature, low catalytic loading, and scale-up to multigram quantities with an excellent enantiomeric excess value of >99%, which meets the enantiomeric purity required for pharmaceutical purposes.
