A catalytic asymmetric intra- and intermolecular haloetherification of electron-deficient alkenes (halogen = Cl, Br, I) has been realized by the use of chiral metal complexes of N,N′-dioxides. In the presence of a chiral Fe(III) complex, a series of tetrahydropyran derivatives were obtained in good yields (up to 99% yield) with a high level of enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee). Promoted by a chiral Ce(III) complex, chiral oxepane derivatives could be given in good results. Moreover, the intermolecular haloetherification of chalcones catalyzed by Sc(III) complex using MeOH as nucleophile is demonstrated. This methodology also can be successfully applied to the synthesis of (?)-Centrolobine. Meanwhile, a reasonable reaction mechanism was proposed.

An efficient and environmentally benign protocol for the synthesis of vicinal chlorohydroxy and chloromethoxy derivatives in a highly regioselective manner from olefins using NH4Cl as a chlorine source and oxone as an oxidant in aqueous acetone and methanol is demonstrated. This methodology offers an additive and metal chloride free approach and is endowed with simple reaction conditions, high yields a broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance. Moreover, the aromatic substrates with a terminal double bond exhibited merely Markovnikov selectivity, while the internal alkenes show exclusive regiocontrol and low to moderate diastereoselectivity.
