Catalytic Generation and Chemoselective Transfer of Nucleophilic Hydrides from Dihydrogen
Pape, Felix,Brechmann, Lea T.,Teichert, Johannes F.
, p. 985 - 988 (2019)
Copper(I)–N-heterocyclic-carbene (NHC) complexes enabled the catalytic generation of nucleophilic hydrides from dihydrogen (H2) and their subsequent transfer to allylic chlorides. The highly chemoselective catalyst displayed no concomitant hydrogenation reactivity; in fact, the terminal double bond formed in the hydride transfer remained intact. Switching to deuterium gas (D2) allowed for regioselective monodeuteration with excellent isotope incorporation.
Stereoselective total synthesis of polyketide lactone, (3R,4S,5S,9S)-3,5,9-trihydroxy-4-methylundecanoic acid δ-lactone

The total synthesis of lactone 1 has been described. The convergent asymmetric synthesis relies on the use of an Evans' syn-aldol, chain extension with lithio tert-butyl acetate, and the stereoselective reduction of a ketone as the key reactions.
