An efficient rhodium-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of cyclopentenones based on a three-component reaction of acrylic acids, formaldehyde, and malonates via vinylic C-H activation is reported. Exploratory studies showed that 5-alkylation of as-prepared cyclopentenones could be realized smoothly by the treatment of a variety of alkyl halides with a Na2CO3/MeOH solution. Excess formaldehyde and malonate led to a multicomponent reaction that afforded the multisubstituted cyclopentenones through a Michael addition.

The rhodium(III)-catalyzed coupling of C-H substrates with iodonium ylides has been realized for the efficient synthesis of diverse cyclic skeletons, where the iodonium ylides have been identified as efficient and outstanding carbene precursors. The reaction systems are applicable to both sp2 and sp3 C-H substrates under mild and redox-neutral conditions. The catalyst loading can be as low as 0.5 mol % in a gram-scale reaction. Representative products exhibit cytotoxicity toward human cancer cells at nanomolar levels.
Exploring the Promiscuous Enzymatic Activation of Unnatural Polyketide Extender Units in Vitro and in Vivo for Monensin Biosynthesis

The incorporation of new-to-nature extender units into polyketide synthesis is an important source for diversity yet is restricted by limited availability of suitably activated building blocks in vivo. We here describe a straightforward workflow for the biogenic activation of commercially available new-to-nature extender units. Firstly, the substrate scope of a highly flexible malonyl co-enzyme A synthetase from Streptomyces cinnamonensis was characterized. The results were matched by in vivo experiments in which the said extender units were accepted by both the polyketide synthase and the accessory enzymes of the monensin biosynthetic pathway. The experiments gave rise to a series of predictable monensin derivatives by the exploitation of the innate substrate promiscuity of an acyltransferase and downstream enzyme functions.
Computational and experimental studies on copper-mediated selective cascade C-H/N-H annulation of electron-deficient acrylamide with arynes

An efficient and convenient copper-mediated method has been developed to achieve direct cascade C-H/N-H annulation to synthesize 2-quinolinones from electron-deficient acrylamides and arynes. This method highlights an emerging but simple strategy to transform inert C-H bonds into versatile functional groups in organic synthesis to provide a new method of synthesizing 2-quinolinones efficiently. Mechanistic investigations by experimental and density functional theory (DFT) studies suggest that an organometallic C-H activation via a Cu(iii) intermediate is likely to be involved in the reaction.
Ni-Catalyzed Enantioselective Reductive Diarylation of Activated Alkenes by Domino Cyclization/Cross-Coupling

A Ni-catalyzed enantioselective reductive diarylation of activated alkenes by domino cyclizative/cross-coupling of two aryl bromides is developed. This reaction proceeds under very mild conditions and shows broad substrate scope, without requiring the use of preformed organometallic reagents. Moreover, this approach provides direct access to various bis-heterocycles bearing all-carbon quaternary centers in synthetically useful yields (up to 81%) with excellent enantioselectivity (>30 examples, 90-99% ee).

The highly enantioselective sulfa-Michael addition of alkyl thiols to unactivated α-substituted acrylate esters catalyzed by a bifunctional iminophosphorane organocatalyst under mild conditions is described. The strong Br?nsted basicity of the iminophosphorane moiety of the catalyst provides the necessary activation of the alkyl thiol pro-nucleophile, while the two tert-leucine residues flanking a central thiourea hydrogen-bond donor facilitate high enantiofacial selectivity in the protonation of the transient enolate intermediate. The reaction is broad in scope with respect to the alkyl thiol, the ester moiety, and the α-substituent of the α,β-unsaturated ester, affords sulfa-Michael adducts in excellent yields (up to >99%) and enantioselectivities (up to 96% ee), and is amenable to decagram scale-up using catalyst loadings as low as 0.05 mol %.
