"I" did it: An iodine(III)-mediated bromocarbocyclization was elaborated as an efficient tool for the synthesis of oxoindoles. This method is applicable to a variety of structurally different substrates, also with chemically sensitive groups, and gives access to the heterocycles in a regio- and stereoselective fashion (see scheme). The indole-2-ones obtained can be converted easily into structurally complex target compounds, such as the alkaloid physostigmine. Copyright
Highly enantioselective construction of the α-chiral center of amides via iridium-catalyzed hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated amides

The chiral center at the a-position of amides is installed in excellent enantioselectivity via the iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of αβ-unsaturated amides under mild conditions. Even aliphatic amides are suitable substrates. The presence of a
