Abstract
Deuterium-labeled α-amino acids are useful in research related to drug discovery and biomedical science. However, a high degree of site selectivity and stereoselectivity in the deuterium incorporation process is still difficult to achieve. Herein, we report a new enantioselective deuteration method at the α-position of several amino acids without external chiral sources. The proposed deuteration methods (NaOEt and EtOD) are highly selective and simple. Additionally, we provide a mechanistic study for this enantioretentive deuteration.

Abstract
Herein, we report an l-valine-derived amide phosphine-catalyzed [3+2] cyclization of MBH carbonates and N-(2-tert-butylphenyl)maleimides via asymmetric desymmetrization. Bicyclic N-aryl succinimide derivatives bearing three continuous chiral centers with a remote C-N atropisomeric chirality were constructed stereospecifically and enantioselectively. A wide variety of MBH carbonates could be employed in this process to deliver highly optically pure succinimide derivatives in moderate to excellent yields.

Abstract
Covering: 2013 to 2023The α-tertiary amine moiety is a common structural motif in natural alkaloids and is frequently associated with intriguing biological activities and inherent synthetic challenges. A major hurdle in the total synthesis of these alkaloids is the asymmetric construction of the α-tertiary amine moiety. Temporary chirality inductions have been effective strategies employed to address this issue, particularly in natural product synthesis. The temporary chirality induction strategies in α-tertiary amine synthesis can be broadly classified into three categories based on the types of temporary chirality involved: Seebach's self-regeneration of stereocenters (SRS), C-to-N-to-C chirality transfer, and memory of chirality (MOC). This review highlights the recent advancements in temporary chirality induction strategies for the total synthesis of α-tertiary amine-containing natural products between 2013 and 2023.

Abstract
Chirality transfer and regulation, accompanied by morphology transformation, arouse widespread interest for application in materials and biological science. Here, a photocontrolled supramolecular chiral switch is fabricated from chiral diphenylalanine (l-Phe-l-Phe, FF) modified with naphthalene (2), achiral dithienylethene (DTE) photoswitch (1), and cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]). Chirality transfer from the chiral FF moiety of 2 to a charge-transfer (CT) heterodimer consisting of achiral guest 1 and achiral naphthalene (NP) in 2 has been unprecedented achieved via the encapsulation of CB[8]. On the contrary, chirality transfer from chiral FF to NP cannot be conducted in only guest 2. Crucially, induced circular dichroism of the heterodimer can be further modulated by distinct light, attributing to reversible photoisomerization of the DTE. Meanwhile, topological nanostructures are changed from one-dimensional (1D) nanofibers to two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets in the orderly assembling process of the heterodimer, which further achieved reversible interconversion between 2D nanosheets and 1D nanorods with tunable-induced chirality stimulated by diverse light.

Abstract
Chiral resolution is very important and still a big challenge due to different biological activity and same physicochemical property of one pair (R)- and (S)-isomer. There is no doubt that chiral selectors are essentially needed for chiral resolution, which can stereoselectively interact with a pair of isomers. To date, a large amount of optically active helical polymers as chiral selectors have been synthesized via two strategies. First, the target helical polymers are derived from natural polysaccharide such as cellulose and amylose. Second, they can be synthesized by polymerization of chiral monomers. Alternatively, an achiral polymer is prepared first followed by static or dynamic chiral induction. Furthermore, a part of them is harnessed as chiral stationary phases for chromatographic chiral separation and as chiral adsorbents for enantioselective adsorption/crystallization, resulting in good enantioseparation efficiency. In summary, the present review will focus on recent progress of the polymers with optical activity for chiral resolution, especially the literature published in the past 10 years. In addition, development prospects and future challenges of optically active helical polymers will be discussed in detail.

Abstract
We herein describe an asymmetric α-allylic allenylation of β-ketocarbonyls and aldehydes with 1,3-enynes. A synergistic chiral primary amine/Pd catalyst was identified to facilitate the utilization of 1,3-enynes as atom-economic and achiral allene precursors. The synergistic catalysis enables the construction of all-carbon quaternary centers-tethered allenes bearing non-adjacent 1,3-axial central stereogenic centers in high level of diastereo- and enantio-selectivity. By switching the configurations of ligands and aminocatalysts, diastereodivergence can be achieved and any of the four diastereoisomers can be accessed in high diastereo- and enantio- selectivity.

A novel α,β-regioselective [3+2] cycloaddition reaction of arylallene with C,N-cyclic azomethine imine is reported. The axial-to-central chirality transfer phenomenon has been disclosed with chiral allenes in the reaction. The wide substrate scope, including different functional groups and natural products, reveals the generality of the methodology. Both experiments and density functional theory calculations have been used to elucidate a plausible mechanism.

Abstract
Concise syntheses of naturally occurring γ-butenolides (+)-xylogiblactones B and C have been achieved for the first time starting from commercial methyl crotonate in 5-8 steps. The synthetic course involves allenoate γ-addition to racemic aldehydes through a kinetic resolution to establish the required stereochemical framework as center and axial chirality and subsequent oxacyclization via gold catalysis to complete the (+)-xylogiblactone skeleton. Both key transformations proceed in a regio- and stereospecific manner. This outcome relies on finding an efficient synthetic method for racemic aldehydes as precursors for the kinetic resolution. Completion of the synthesis provides stereochemical clarification for (+)-xylogiblactones B and C.

Abstract
The merger of photoredox and transition-metal catalysis has evolved as a robust platform in organic synthesis over the past decade. The stereoselective 1,4-functionalization of 1,3-enynes, a prevalent synthon in synthetic chemistry, could afford valuable chiral allene derivatives. However, tremendous efforts have been focused on the ionic reaction pathway. The radical-involved asymmetric 1,4-functionalization of 1,3-enynes remains a prominent challenge. Herein, we describe the asymmetric three-component 1,4-dialkylation of 1,3-enynes via dual photoredox and chromium catalysis to provide chiral allenols. This method features readily available starting materials, broad substrate scope, good functional group compatibility, high regioselectivity, and simultaneous control of axial and central chiralities. Mechanistic studies suggest that this reaction proceeds through a radical-involved redox-neutral pathway.

Abstract
Enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral sulfur-containing biaryl derivatives through the electrophilic sulfenylation of biaryl phenols has been achieved for the first time. This catalytic asymmetric system, which involves sequential desymmetrization and kinetic resolution, is enabled by a combination of a novel 3,3'-disubstituted BINOL-derived selenide catalyst and an achiral sulfonic acid. Control experiments and computational studies suggest that multiple noncovalent interactions between the cocatalysts and substrate, especially a network of hydrogen bond interactions, play a crucial role in determining the enantioselectivity and reactivity.

Abstract
The asymmetric construction of chiral spiroenones bearing both axial and spiro-central chirality has been established for the first time by a central-to-spiro chirality transfer and a central-to-axial chirality conversion from chiral 2,3-diarylbenzoindolines. Mechanistic studies indicate the hydrogen bonds play important roles in this process, providing an efficient strategy for enantioselective construction of spirocyclic backbones via simultaneously controlling spiro-central and axial chirality in one operation.

Abstract
Intramolecular Sn2' cyclization of α-amino ester enolates provided piperidine derivatives with vicinal quaternary-tertiary stereocenters with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity via memory of chirality and the Thorpe-Ingold effect. DFT calculations provided a mechanistic rationale for the increase in chirality preservation via the Thorpe-Ingold effect. This new method has the potential to be integrated into concise asymmetric synthesis of bioactive molecules containing multisubstituted piperidine moieties.

Abstract
Chirality is one of the most important types of steric information in nature. In addition to central chirality, axial chirality has been catching more and more attention from scientists. However, although much attention has recently been paid to the creation of axial chirality and the chirality transfer of allenes, no study has been disclosed as to the memory of such an axial chirality. The reason is very obvious: the chiral information is stored over three carbon atoms. Here, the first example of the memory of chirality (MOC) of allenes has been recorded, which was realized via an optically active alkylidene-π-allyl iridium intermediate, leading to a highly stereoselective electrophilic allenylation with amines. Specifically, we have established the transition metal-mediated highly stereoselective 2,3-allenylation of amines by using optically active 2,3-allenyl carbonates under the catalysis of a nonchiral iridium(iii) complex. This method is compatible with sterically bulky and small substituents on both amines and 2,3-allenyl carbonates and furnishes the desired optically active products with a high efficiency of chirality transfer. Further mechanistic experiments reveal that the isomerization of the optically active alkylidene-π-allyl iridium intermediate is very slow. Chirality is one of the most important types of steric information in nature.![]()

Abstract
The mechanism of the intermolecular hydroamination of 3-methylbuta-1,2-diene (1) with N-methylaniline (2) catalyzed by (IPr)AuOTf has been studied by employing a combination of kinetic analysis, deuterium labelling studies, and in situ spectral analysis of catalytically active mixtures. The results of these and additional experiments are consistent with a mechanism for hydroamination involving reversible, endergonic displacement of N-methylaniline from [(IPr)Au(NHMePh)]+ (4) by allene to form the cationic gold π-C1,C2-allene complex [(IPr)Au(η2 -H2 C=C=CMe2 )]+ (I), which is in rapid, endergonic equilibrium with the regioisomeric π-C2,C3-allene complex [(IPr)Au(η2 -Me2 C=C=CH2 )]+ (I'). Rapid and reversible outer-sphere addition of 2 to the terminal allene carbon atom of I' to form gold vinyl complex (IPr)Au[C(=CH2 )CMe2 NMePh] (II) is superimposed on the slower addition of 2 to the terminal allene carbon atom of I to form gold vinyl complex (IPr)Au[C(=CMe2 )CH2 NMePh] (III). Selective protodeauration of III releases N-methyl-N-(3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)aniline (3 a) with regeneration of 4. At high conversion, gold vinyl complex II is competitively trapped by an (IPr)Au+ fragment to form the cationic bis(gold) vinyl complex {[(IPr)Au]2 [C(=CH2 )CMe2 NMePh]}+ (6).

Abstract
Azolium cumulenolates are a special type of intermediates in N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis. They contain elongated linear structures with three contiguous C=C bonds and sterically unhindered α-carbon atoms. These structural features make it difficult to develop enantioselective reactions for these intermediates. Here we disclose the first carbene-catalyzed highly enantioselective addition reactions of azolium cumulenolates. The reaction starts with alkynals as the precursors for azolium cumulenolate intermediates that undergo enantioselective addition to activated ketones. From the same set of substrates, both allene and spirooxindole products can be obtained with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. The allene moieties in our optically enriched products carry rich reactivities and can be transformed to diverse molecules. The spirooxindole scaffolds in our products are important structural motifs in natural products and medicines.

Abstract
Atropisomerism is a stereochemical behavior portrayed by three-dimensional molecules that bear rotationally restricted σ bond. Akin to the well-represented point-chiral molecules, atropisomerically chiral compounds are finding increasing utilities in many disciplines where molecular asymmetry is influential. This provides steady demand on atroposelective synthesis, where numerous synthetic pursuits have been rewarded with conceptually novel and streamlined methods while expanding the structural diversity of atropisomers. This review summarizes key achievements in stereoselective preparation of biaryl, heterobiaryl, and nonbiaryl atropisomers documented between 2015 and 2020. Emphasis is placed on the synthetic strategies for each structural class, while examples are cited to illustrate the potential applications of the accessed atropochiral targets.

Abstract
Copper-catalyzed reactions of terminal 1,3-diynes with electron-deficient azides to generate either 3-alkynyl or 2,3-dienyl imidamides and imidates are described. The selectivity depends on the diyne substituents and the nucleophile that reacts with the ketenimide intermediate generated from the corresponding triazole precursor. Reactions of 1,3-diynes containing a propargylic acetate afford [3]cumulenyl imidamides, while reactions using methanol as the trapping agent selectively generate 2,3-dienyl imidates. Five-membered heterocycles were obtained from 1,3-diynes containing a homopropargylic hydroxyl or amine substituent.

Abstract
Single and double cyclophenylene-ethynylenes (CPEs) with axial and helical chirality have been synthesized by the Sonogashira cross-coupling of di- and tetraethynyl biphenyls with a U-shaped prearomatic diiodoparaphenylene followed by reductive aromatization. X-ray crystallographic analyses and DFT calculations revealed that the CPEs possess highly twisted bent structures. Bend angles on the edge of the paraphenylene units were close to the value of [5]cycloparaphenylene (CPP)-the smallest CPP to date. The double and single CPEs possessed stable chirality despite flexible biphenyl structures because of the high strain in the diethynyl-paraphenylene moiety. In both the single and double CPEs, orbital interactions along the biphenyl axis were observed by DFT calculations in LUMO and LUMO+2 of the single CPE and LUMO+1 of the double CPE, which likely cause lowering of these orbital energies. Concerning chiroptical properties: boosting of the gabs value was observed in the biphenyl-based double CPE, as well as the binaphthyl-based single CPE, compared to the biphenyl-based single CPE.

Abstract
Central-to-axial chirality conversion represents a fascinating class of chemical processes consisting of the destruction of stereogenic centers and the simultaneous installation of axial chiral elements, which provides efficient methods for the preparation of axially chiral compounds. Using the strategy, a wide range of axially chiral compounds, including biaryls, heterobiaryls, aromatic amides, allenes and vinyl arenes, have been synthesized with high efficiency and excellent enantioselectivity. In addition, central-to-axial chirality conversion strategy has been applied to the synthesis of natural products. The strategy has undoubtedly become and will continue to be a hot research topic in the field of asymmetric catalysis and synthesis. In this minireview, we selected some examples to introduce the developments and trends in the central-to-axial chirality conversion strategy up to April 2020.

Abstract
Trisubstituted allenes with a 3-(1'-alkenylidene)-pyrrolidin-2-one motif were successfully deracemized (13 examples, 86-98 % ee) employing visible light (λ=420 nm) and a chiral triplet sensitizer as the catalyst (2.5 mol %). The photocatalyst likely operates by selective recognition of one allene enantiomer via hydrogen bonds and by a triplet-sensitized racemization process. Even a tetrasubstituted allene (45 % ee) and a seven-membered 3-(1'-alkenylidene)-azepan-2-one (62 % ee) could be enantiomerically enriched under the chosen conditions. It was shown that the axial chirality of the allenes can be converted into point chirality by a Diels-Alder (94-97 % ee) or a bromination reaction (91 % ee). Ring opening of the five-membered pyrrolidin-2-one was achieved without significantly compromising the integrity of the chirality axis (92 % ee).

Abstract
Chiral allenes are important structural scaffolds found in many natural products
and drugs, and in addition, they also serve as building blocks for many organic transformations.
The conventional methods for preparing chiral allenes rely on the resolution of
racemic allenes and the chirality transfer between non-racemic propargylic derivatives and
nucleophilic reagents. In recent years, the synthesis of chiral allenes by asymmetric catalysis
has been achieved fruitful results. Among them, enantioselective synthesis of chiral
allenes with chiral organic catalysts is particularly prominent. In this paper, the research
progress of enantioselective synthesis of chiral allenes catalyzed by chiral organic catalysts
in recent years is reviewed, including various reaction systems and synthesis applications.

Abstract
A stereocontrolled halo-Prins/halo-Nazarov cyclization protocol is reported, where chiral information from a secondary alcohol is relayed through several intermediates yielding halocyclopentene products diastereoselectively. An enantiopure product is obtained when a nonracemic secondary alcohol is used. Experimental and computational studies are described, enabling the design and synthesis of systems that ionize and cyclize with >95% chirality transfer through a mechanism involving the creation and preservation of transient helical chirality in a pentadienyl cation intermediate. First, a diastereoselective alkynyl Prins cyclization is executed to synthesize a conformationally distorted dihydropyran intermediate with a curved backbone and high reactivity. This chiral precursor adopts a specific helical alignment early in the subsequent cationic ionization/halo-Nazarov cyclization process, dictating the direction of conrotation in the electrocyclization. Notably, despite the ablation of an sp3 stereogenic center during ionization, the low halo-Nazarov barrier enables efficient capture of a cationic intermediate with dynamic conformational chirality. The ionization and electrocyclization thus occur with "memory of chirality".

Abstract
An efficient strategy for the asymmetric synthesis of pyrrolidines with vicinal quaternary-tertiary or quaternary-quaternary stereocenters was established. A "memory of chirality" intramolecular SN2' reaction of α-amino ester enolates with allylic halides provided a functionalized pyrrolidine with excellent dia- and enantioselectivity. This method features construction of stereochemically enriched pyrrolidines in a single operation through the influence of a single chiral center presented in substrates.

Abstract
Metal-catalyzed allene cycloisomerizations provide rapid entry into five-membered carbocyclic frameworks, a common motif in natural products and pharmaceuticals. While both Au(I) and Pd(0)-catalyzed allene cycloisomerizations give 5-endo-dig cyclization, Pd prefers the syn diastereomer in contrast to the anti isomer observed with Au. The change in stereoselectivity is proposed to arise from buildup of A1,3 strain during the key carbopalladation step to furnish the cycloisomerized products in moderate to good dr with yields comparable to Au(I) catalysts.

Abstract
An efficient strategy for the asymmetric synthesis of Cα-substituted proline derivatives from acyclic α-amino acids has been established. The 5-exo-dig asymmetric cyclization of α-amino ester enolates onto heterosubstituted alkynes provided a product with excellent enantioselectivity via the memory of chirality concept. Density functional theory calculations indicated that a heteroatom is crucial for the success of the asymmetric cyclization because a more stabilized vinyl carbanion is produced. This new method has the potential to enable the rapid asymmetric construction of bioactive molecules containing the pyrrolidine skeleton.

Abstract
All-carbon quaternary stereocenters are versatile building blocks, and their asymmetric construction has attracted much attention. Herein, we disclose an axial-to-central chirality transfer strategy for the synthesis of chiral quaternary stereocenters via dearomatization of (S)-BINOLs. The reaction proceeded smoothly with a wide range of propargyl carbonates to afford chiral spiro-compounds in high yields with excellent enantioselectivities. In addition, the strategy was extended to kinetic resolution of rac-BINOLs albeit with moderate s value.

Abstract
Bridged ring systems are found in a wide variety of biologically active molecules including pharmaceuticals and natural products. However, the development of practical methods to access such systems with precise control of the planar chirality presents considerable challenges to synthetic chemists. In the context of our work on the synthesis of cyclocitrinols, a family of steroidal natural products, we herein report the development of a point-to-planar chirality transfer strategy for preparing bridged ring systems from readily accessible fused ring systems. Inspired by the proposed pathway for biosynthesis of cyclocitrinols from ergosterol, our strategy involves a bioinspired cascade rearrangement, which enabled the gram-scale synthesis of a common intermediate in nine steps and subsequent unified synthesis of 10 cyclocitrinols in an additional one to three steps. Our work provides experimental support for the proposed biosynthetic pathway and for the possible interrelationships between members of the cyclocitrinol family. In addition to being a convenient route to 5(10→19) abeo-steroids, our strategy also offers a generalized approach to bridged ring systems via point-to-planar chirality transfer. Mechanistic investigations suggest that the key cascade rearrangement involves a regioselective ring scission of a cyclopropylcarbinyl cation rather than a direct Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement.
