Abstract
Significant progress has been recently made in our understanding of the evolution of jasmonates biosynthesis and signaling. The bioactive jasmonate activating COI1-JAZ co-receptor differs in bryophytes and vascular plants. Dinor-iso-12-oxo-phytodienoic acid (dn-iso-OPDA) is the bioactive hormone in bryophytes and lycophytes. However, further studies showed that the full activation of hormone signaling in Marchantia polymorpha requires additional unidentified hormones. Δ4-dn-OPDAs were previously identified as novel bioactive jasmonates in M. polymorpha. In this paper, we describe the major bioactive isomer of Δ4-dn-OPDAs as Δ4-dn-iso-OPDA through chemical synthesis, receptor binding assay, and biological activity in M. polymorpha. In addition, we disclosed that Δ4-dn-cis-OPDA is a biosynthetic precursor of Δ4-dn-iso-OPDA. We demonstrated that in planta cis-to-iso conversion of Δ4-dn-cis-OPDA occurs in the biosynthesis of Δ4-dn-iso-OPDA, defining a key biosynthetic step in the chemical evolution of hormone structure. We predict that these findings will facilitate further understanding of the molecular evolution of plant hormone signaling.

Abstract
Cobalt(I) catalysts equipped with bisphosphine ligands can be used to promote formal (3 + 2 + 2) intramolecular cycloadditions of enynylidenecyclopropanes of type 1. The method provides synthetically appealing 5,7,5-fused tricyclic systems in good yields and with complete diastereo- and chemoselectivity. Interestingly, its scope differs from that of previously reported annulations based on precious metal catalysts, specifically rhodium and palladium. Noticeably, density functional theory calculations confirm that the mechanism of the reaction is also different from those proposed for these other catalysts.

Abstract
The development of an intramolecular rhodium-catalyzed [(3+2+2)] carbocyclization reaction of alkylidenecyclopropanes (ACPs) tethered to 1,4- and 1,5-skipped dienes is described. This transformation offers a new approach for the construction of bridged tricyclic compounds with up to three quaternary centers, which are suitable for the synthesis of challenging bioactive natural products. For instance, the synthetic utility of this transformation is illustrated through a concise asymmetric total synthesis of the sesquiterpene (+)-zizaene in ten steps from a commercially available starting material.

A Mechanistic Study of the Rhodium-Catalyzed [4 + 2 + 1] Cycloaddition of In Situ Generated Ene-Ene-Allenes and Carbon Monoxide. J Org Chem 2022; 87:10576-10591.

Abstract
Transition metal-catalyzed [4 + 2 + 1] cycloaddition of in situ generated ene/yne-ene-allenes (from ene/yne-ene propargyl esters) and carbon monoxide (CO) gives the [4 + 2 + 1] cycloadducts rather than [2 + 2 + 1] cycloadducts. Investigating the mechanism of this [4 + 2 + 1] reaction and understanding why the [2 + 2 + 1] reaction does not compete and the role of the allene moiety in the substrates are important. This is also helpful to guide the future design of new [4 + 2 + 1] cycloadditions. Reported here are the kinetic and computed studies of the [4 + 2 + 1] reactions of ene-ene propargyl esters and CO. A quantum chemical study (at the DLPNO-CCSD(T)//BMK level) revealed that the [4 + 2 + 1] reaction includes four key steps, which are 1,3-acyloxy migration (rate-determining step), oxidative cyclization, CO migratory insertion, and reductive elimination. The allene moiety in the substrates is critical for providing additional coordination to the rhodium center in the final step of the catalytic cycle, which in turn favors the reductive elimination transition state in the [4 + 2 + 1] rather than in the [2 + 2 + 1] pathway. The CO insertion step in the [4 + 2 + 1] reaction, which could occur through either the UP (favored here) or DOWN CO insertion pathway, has also been deeply scrutinized, and some guidance from this analysis has been provided to help the future design of new [4 + 2 + 1] reactions. Quantum chemical calculations have also been applied to explain why [4 + 2] and [4 + 1] cycloadditions do not happen and how trienes as side products for some substrates are generated.
