Ligand-controlled reactivity plays an important role in transition-metal catalysis, enabling a vast number of efficient transformations to be discovered and developed. However, a single ligand is generally used to promote all steps of the catalytic cycle (e.g., oxidative addition, reductive elimination), a requirement that makes ligand design challenging and limits its generality, especially in relay asymmetric transformations. We hypothesized that multiple ligands with a metal center might be used to sequentially promote multiple catalytic steps, thereby combining complementary catalytic reactivities through a simple combination of simple ligands. With this relay catalysis strategy (L/L?), we report here the first highly regio- and enantioselective remote hydroarylation process. By synergistic combination of a known chain-walking ligand and a simple asymmetric cross-coupling ligand with the nickel catalyst, enantioenriched α-aryl alkylboronates could be rapidly obtained as versatile synthetic intermediates through this formal asymmetric remote C(sp3)-H arylation process.

The direct and chemoselective conversion of the carbon-metal bond of gem-dimetallic reagents enables rapid and sequential formation of multiple carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds, thus representing a powerful method for efficiently increasing structural complexity. Herein, we report a visible-light-induced, nickel-catalyzed, chemoselective cross-coupling reaction between gem-borazirconocene alkanes and diverse aryl halides, affording a wide range of alkyl Bpin derivatives in high yields with excellent regioselectivity. This practical method features attractively simple reaction conditions and a broad substrate scope. Additionally, we systematically investigated a Bpin-directed chain walking process underlying the regioselectivity of alkylzirconocenes, thus uncovering the mechanism of the remote functionalization of internal olefins achieved with our method. Finally, DFT calculations indicate that the high regioselectivity of this reaction originates from the directing effect of the Bpin group.

A tunable strategy to prepare α,β-unsaturated esters and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters in good to excellent yields was developed through copper-catalyzed oxidative coupling of phosphorus ylides with alkenyl boronic acids under mild conditions. The reaction without water afforded α,β-unsaturated esters, ketones, and amides while α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters, 1,4-α,β-unsaturated diketones and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto amides were obtained when using 5.0 equiv. of water. H2O18 labeling experiments showed that water played an important role in the formation of α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters. A plausible formation mechanism for α,β-unsaturated esters and α,β-unsaturated-γ-keto esters was proposed based on mechanistic studies. Phosphonium salts could also be used directly as coupling partners instead of phosphorus ylides. The reaction exhibited a broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, good regioselectivity, and diverse coupling products. (Figure presented.).

A copper-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective hydroamination of alkenyl dan boronates (dan =1,8-diaminonaphthyl) with hydrosilanes and hydroxylamines proceeds to deliver the chiral α-aminoboronic acids in good yields with high enantiomeric ratios. The ke

The 2-pyrone sub-unit is found in a number of natural products possessing broad spectrum biological activity. Such compounds are validated as being capable of binding to specific protein domains and able to exert a remarkable range of biological effects. In an effort to identify synthetic 2-pyrones with interesting biological effects, herein we report the synthesis and biological evaluation of 4-substituted-6-methyl-2-pyrones. Synthetic routes to 4-alkyl/alkenyl/aryl/alkynyl-6-methyl-2-pyrones have been developed utilising Sonogashira, Suzuki and Negishi cross-coupling starting from readily available 4-bromo-6-methyl-2-pyrone. Specific conditions for each organometallic protocol were required for successful cross-coupling. In particular, a triethylamine/acetonitrile - base/solvent mixture was crucial to Sonogashira alkynylation of 4-bromo-6-methyl-2-pyrone, whereas thallium carbonate was a mandatory base for the Suzuki cross-coupling of trialkylboranes. The 2-pyrones demonstrate potent inhibitory activity against Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Botrytis cinerea. The growth inhibitory activities of selected 2-pyrones were determined in A2780 human ovarian carcinoma and K562 human chronic myelogenous leukaemia cell lines using an in vitro cell culture system (MTT assay). These studies demonstrate that 4-phenylethynyl-, 4-tetrahydropyranylpropargyl ether- and 4-ethynyl-6-methyl-2-pyrones have excellent potential as a new class of anticancer agents.
Diastereoselective allylations and crotylations under phase-transfer conditions using trifluoroborate salts: An application to the total synthesis of (-)-tetrahydrolipstatin

A mild protocol for diastereoselective allylations and crotylations of α- and β-silyloxy substituted aldehydes utilizing potassium allyl/crotyltrifluoroborates is described. The reactions proceed to completion within 30 min at room temperature in biphasic or aqueous media in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst. The resulting homoallylic alcohols are obtained in high yields and moderate to excellent diastereoselectivities. The method was applied to the asymmetric total synthesis of the antiobesity agent tetrahydrolipstatin (orlistat).

Terminal alkynes and alkenes were conveniently hydroborated to the corresponding alkenyl- and alkyldichloroboranes using dichloroborane-dioxane in dichloromethane. These dichloroboranes were hydrolyzed by water to the corresponding alkenyl- and alkylboron
Synthesis of functionalized vinyl boronates via ruthenium-catalyzed olefin cross-metathesis and subsequent conversion to vinyl halides
Morrill, Christie,Grubbs, Robert H.

Functionalized vinyl pinacol boronates suitable for Suzuki cross-coupling reactions are synthesized using ruthenium-catalyzed olefin cross-metathesis of 1-propenyl pinacol boronate and various alkenes, including functionalized and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. The resultant boronate cross products are stereoselectively transformed into predominantly Z-vinyl bromides and E-vinyl iodides. The vinyl bromides may be synthesized in a two-step, one-pot synthesis from a variety of olefins, resulting in a Z-selective formal vinyl bromide cross-metathesis reaction.
