Enantioselective Synthesis of Medium-Sized-Ring Lactones via Iridium-Catalyzed Z-Retentive Asymmetric Allylic Substitution Reaction

Medium-sized rings are important structural units, but their synthesis, especially in a highly enantioselective manner, has been a great challenge. Herein we report an enantioselective synthesis of medium-sized-ring lactones by an iridium-catalyzed Z-retentive asymmetric allylic substitution reaction. The reaction features mild conditions and a broad substrate scope. Various eight- to 11-membered-ring lactones can be afforded in moderate to excellent yields (up to 88%) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). The utilization of both Z-allyl precursors and an Ir catalyst is critical for the medium-sized-ring formation.

Application of copper(II)-mediated radical cross-dehydrogenative coupling to prepare spirocyclic oxindoles and to a formal total synthesis of Satavaptan

Application of radical cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) procedures to prepare a range of novel spirocyclic oxindoles and to a formal total synthesis of the vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist Satavaptan is reported. The key step involves a c

Substrate scope in the copper-mediated construction of bis-oxindoles via a double C-H/Ar-H coupling process

Abstract The synthesis of bis-oxindoles via the copper(II)-mediated double cyclisation of linear bis-anilides is described. Cu(OAc)2·H2O was identified as an efficient and inexpensive catalyst for this process. In contrast to previous methods, which rely on the synthesis of the central core from existing oxindole building blocks, this new approach focusses on concurrent formation of both oxindole rings from a simple linear precursor, allowing the formation of bis-oxindoles containing a diverse range of cyclic and acyclic linkers using a single synthetic method.

Copper-mediated construction of spirocyclic bis-oxindoles via a double C-H, Ar-H coupling process

A double C-H, Ar-H coupling process for the conversion of bis-anilides into spirocyclic bis-oxindoles, enabling the concomitant formation of two all-carbon quaternary centers at oxindole 3-positions in a diastereoselective manner, is described. The optimum cyclization conditions utilize stoichiometric Cu(OAc)2·H2O/KOtBu in DMF at 110 °C and have been applied to prepare a range of structurally diverse bis-spirooxindoles in fair to good yields (28-77%); the method has also been extended to prepare bis-oxindoles linked by a functionalized acyclic carbon chain.

New electrochemical carboxylation of vinyl triflates. Synthesis of β-keto carboxylic acids

Electrochemical reduction of alicyclic vinyl triflates (1a-1e) in a DMF solution containing 0.1 M Bu4NBF4 under an atmospheric pressure of carbon dioxide with a platinum cathode and a magnesium anode resulted in the cleavage of an ox
