Abstract
Cyclic secondary amines are prominent subunits in pharmaceutical compounds. Methods for direct functionalization of N-unprotected/unsubstituted piperidines and related heterocycles have limited precedent despite their potential to impact medicinal chemistry and organic synthesis. Herein, we report a Cu/nitroxyl co-catalyzed method for direct conversion of cyclic secondary amines to the corresponding lactams via aerobic dehydrogenation and oxidative coupling with water. The mild reaction conditions tolerate diverse functional groups, enabling application to molecules that cover broad chemical space. The method is showcased in selective functionalization of building blocks and complex molecules, including late-stage functionalization of bromodomain inhibitors.

Abstract
Nitroxides, also known as nitroxyl radicals, are long-lived or stable radicals with the general structure R1R2N-O•. The spin distribution over the nitroxide N and O atoms contributes to the thermodynamic stability of these radicals. The presence of bulky N-substituents R1 and R2 prevents nitroxide radical dimerization, ensuring their kinetic stability. Despite their reactivity toward various transient C radicals, some nitroxides can be easily stored under air at room temperature. Furthermore, nitroxides can be oxidized to oxoammonium salts (R1R2N═O+) or reduced to anions (R1R2N-O-), enabling them to act as valuable oxidants or reductants depending on their oxidation state. Therefore, they exhibit interesting reactivity across all three oxidation states. Due to these fascinating properties, nitroxides find extensive applications in diverse fields such as biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, materials science, and organic synthesis. This review focuses on the versatile applications of nitroxides in organic synthesis. For their use in other important fields, we will refer to several review articles. The introductory part provides a brief overview of the history of nitroxide chemistry. Subsequently, the key methods for preparing nitroxides are discussed, followed by an examination of their structural diversity and physical properties. The main portion of this review is dedicated to oxidation reactions, wherein parent nitroxides or their corresponding oxoammonium salts serve as active species. It will be demonstrated that various functional groups (such as alcohols, amines, enolates, and alkanes among others) can be efficiently oxidized. These oxidations can be carried out using nitroxides as catalysts in combination with various stoichiometric terminal oxidants. By reducing nitroxides to their corresponding anions, they become effective reducing reagents with intriguing applications in organic synthesis. Nitroxides possess the ability to selectively react with transient radicals, making them useful for terminating radical cascade reactions by forming alkoxyamines. Depending on their structure, alkoxyamines exhibit weak C-O bonds, allowing for the thermal generation of C radicals through reversible C-O bond cleavage. Such thermally generated C radicals can participate in various radical transformations, as discussed toward the end of this review. Furthermore, the application of this strategy in natural product synthesis will be presented.

Abstract
Collective asymmetric total synthesis of marine tricyclic alkaloids, cylindricines A-H, and the proposed structures of cylindricines I and J was achieved in a concise manner from a single common spirocyclic pyrrolidine intermediate. A tandem chemoselective oxidation/intramolecular aza-Michael addition/epimerization was exploited to complete the tricyclic skeleton. This work provides a versatile synthetic entry to the cylindricine family of marine tricyclic alkaloids.

Abstract
8-Azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-8-ol (ABOOL) and 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-7-ol (ABHOL) are the main homologues of hydroxylamine 2-azaadamantan-2-ol (AZADOL) and 9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ol. Both homologues feature a small bicyclic backbone and are known to be stable; however, to date, they have not been used as catalysts for alcohol oxidation. Herein, we report that these hydroxylamines can efficiently catalyze the oxidation of various secondary alcohols to their corresponding ketones using molecular oxygen in ambient air as the terminal oxidant and copper cocatalysts at room temperature. Furthermore, we show that ABOOL and ABHOL can be easily synthesized from commercially available materials.

Abstract
A new approach to the synthesis of the (-)-205B alkaloid is described in this paper. This work is characterised by the development of an efficient chirality transfer through a silyl tethered intramolecular alkylation reaction, an unprecedented tandem highly selective iridium catalyzed partial reduction of lactam coupled with an acid promoted aza-Prins reaction, and an almost complete stereochemical control in Shenvi's radical hydrogen atom transfer on an exocyclic methylene. The second part of this work demonstrates the positive allosteric behavior of this natural alkaloid toward α7 nAChRs, in contrast to the reported inhibitory effect of the unnatural enantiomer.

Abstract
Here, we report the first total syntheses of daphnezomine L-type alkaloids daphnezomine L methyl ester and calyciphylline K via late-stage C-N bond activation. The first synthesis of secodaphniphylline-type alkaloid caldaphnidine D was also achieved via a similar strategy. Other key transformations employed in our synthesis were a facile vicinal diol olefination and an efficient radical cyclization cascade. Biological studies indicated two synthetic compounds possess promising neuroprotective activity.

Abstract
The Cu/ABNO-catalyzed aerobic oxidative coupling of diols and primary amines to access N-substituted pyrroles is highlighted (ABNO = 9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane N-oxyl). The reaction proceeds at room temperature with an O2 balloon as the oxidant using commercially available materials as the substrates and catalysts. The catalyst system is characterized by a broad range of substrates and a good tolerance to sensitive functional groups. The gram-scale experiment proves this system's practicability.

Abstract
Resin-immobilized catalysts were prepared through chirality-driven self-assembly. The method allows the resin-immobilized catalyst to be regenerated under mild conditions and in situ catalyst exchange to be carried out quantitatively. The uniqueness of the methodology was demonstrated by the preparation of a catalyst for TEMPO oxidation as well as a two-step sequential TEMPO oxidation/aldol condensation sequence enabled by facile catalyst exchange.

Abstract
![]()
The
enantioselective total synthesis of madangamine E has been
completed in 30 steps, enabled by a new catalytic and highly enantioselective
desymmetrizing intramolecular Michael addition reaction of a prochiral
ketone to a tethered β,β′-disubstituted
nitroolefin. This key carbon–carbon bond forming reaction efficiently
constructed a chiral bicyclic core in near-perfect enantio- and diastereo-selectivity,
concurrently established three stereogenic centers, including a quaternary
carbon, and proved highly scalable. Furthermore, the pathway and origins
of enantioselectivity in this catalytic cyclization were probed using
density functional theory (DFT) calculations, which revealed the crucial
substrate/catalyst interactions in the enantio-determining step. Following
construction of the bicyclic core, the total synthesis of madangamine
E could be completed, with key steps including a mild one-pot oxidative
lactamization of an amino alcohol, a two-step Z-selective
olefination of a sterically hindered ketone, and ring-closing metatheses
to install the two macrocyclic rings.

Abstract
We report a highly efficient and selective catalytic system, ABNO (9-azabicyclo-[3.3.1]nonane N-oxyl)/HNO3, for the aerobic oxidation of substituted furans to cis-2-ene-1,4-diones under mild reaction conditions using oxygen as the oxidant. The catalyst system is amenable to various substituted (mon-, di-, and tri-) furans and tolerates diverse functional groups, including cyano, nitro, naphthyl, ketone, ester, heterocycle, and even formyl groups. Based on the control and 18O-labeling experiments, the possible mechanism of the oxidation is proposed.

Abstract
Nitroxyl radicals, such as 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine N-oxyl (TEMPO), can catalyze the electrochemical oxidation of alcohols and amines. Because the oxidation current obtained in this process depends on the concentration of alcohols and amines, this process can be applied to their sensing. However, the relatively high oxidation potentials required by nitroxyl radicals can induce interfering oxidation currents from various reductive substances in biological samples, which affects the accuracy of analyte measurements. In this study, we examined the electrooxidation of alcohols and amines at a low potential by applying cooperative oxidation catalysis using a nitroxyl radical and a copper salt. Nortropine N-oxyl (NNO), which showed higher catalytic activity than TEMPO was used as the nitroxyl radical. An increase in the oxidation current was observed at the low potential, and this increase depended on the alcohol concentration. In the case of the electrooxidation of amines, a positive correlation between oxidation current and amine concentration was observed at low amine concentrations. Therefore, low-potential cooperative catalysis can be applied to alcohol and amine electrooxidation for the development of accurate sensors suitable for clinical settings.

Abstract
Aerobic alcohol oxidations catalyzed by transition metal salts and aminoxyls are prominent examples of cooperative catalysis. Cu/aminoxyl catalysts have been studied previously and feature "integrated cooperativity", in which CuII and the aminoxyl participate together to mediate alcohol oxidation. Here we investigate a complementary Fe/aminoxyl catalyst system and provide evidence for "serial cooperativity", involving a redox cascade wherein the alcohol is oxidized by an in situ-generated oxoammonium species, which is directly detected in the catalytic reaction mixture by cyclic step chronoamperometry. The mechanistic difference between the Cu- and Fe-based catalysts arises from the use iron(III) nitrate, which initiates a NOx-based redox cycle for oxidation of aminoxyl/hydroxylamine to oxoammonium. The different mechanisms for the Cu- and Fe-based catalyst systems are manifested in different alcohol oxidation chemoselectivity and functional group compatibility.

Abstract
Catalytic chemoselective reactions of innately less reactive functionalities over more reactive functionalities are described. A cooperative catalyst comprising a soft Lewis acid/hard Brønsted base enabled chemoselective activation of a hydroxyl group over an amino group, allowing for nucleophilic addition to electron-deficient olefins. The reaction could be applicable for a variety of amino alcohols, including pharmaceuticals, without requiring a tedious protection-deprotection process. Chemoselective enolization and subsequent α-functionalization of carboxylic acid derivatives were also achieved by a redox active catalyst through the radical process, providing unnatural α-amino/hydroxy acid derivatives bearing a complex carbon framework and a diverse set of functionalities. The present chemoselective catalysis described herein offers new opportunities to expand the chemical space for innovative drug discovery research.

Abstract
Four distinctive sets of optimum nitroxyl radical/copper salt/additive catalyst combinations have been identified for accommodating the aerobic oxidation of various types of primary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes. Interestingly, less nucleophilic catalysts exhibited higher catalytic activities for the oxidation of particular primary allylic and propargylic alcohols to give α,β-unsaturated aldehydes that function as competent Michael acceptors. The optimum conditions identified herein were successful in the oxidation of various types of primary alcohols, including unprotected amino alcohols and divalent-sulfur-containing alcohols in good-to-high yields. Moreover, N-protected alaninol, an inefficient substrate in the nitroxyl radical/copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidation, was oxidized in good yield. On the basis of the optimization results, a guideline for catalyst selection has been established.

Abstract
This report describes the total synthesis of the complex, oxygenated tetracyclic alkaloid, lyconesidine B. The key synthetic challenge involves diastereoselective generation of a decahydroquinoline ring with a quaternary carbon at the angular position via domino cyclopropanation, ring-opening, and reduction. Another crucial step is the domino ene-yne metathesis involving a quaternary ammonium ion, leading to the construction of a decahydroazaazulen framework.

Abstract
Highly regioselective intramolecular aminolysis of 3,4-epoxy amines has been achieved. Key features of this reaction are (1) chemoselective activation of epoxides in the presence of unprotected aliphatic amines in the same molecules by a La(OTf)3 catalyst and (2) excellent regioselectivity for anti-Baldwin 5-endo-tet cyclization. This reaction affords 3-hydroxy-2-alkylpyrrolidines stereospecifically in high yields. DFT calculations revealed that the regioselectivity might be attributed to distortion energies of epoxy amine substrates. The use of this reaction was demonstrated by the first enantioselective synthesis of an antispasmodic agent prifinium bromide.

Abstract
Fragment coupling reactions that form carbon-carbon bonds are valuable transformations in synthetic design. Advances in metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions in the early 2000s brought a high level of predictability and reliability to carbon-carbon bond constructions involving the union of unsaturated fragments. By comparison, recent years have witnessed an increase in fragment couplings proceeding via carbanionic and open-shell (free radical) intermediates. The latter has been driven by advances in methods to generate and utilize carbon-centered radicals under mild conditions. In this Review, we survey a selection of recent syntheses that have implemented carbanion- or radical-based fragment couplings to form carbon-carbon bonds. We aim to highlight the strategic value of these disconnections in their respective settings and to identify extensible lessons from each example that might be instructive to students.

Abstract
Selective oxidation is one of the most important and challenging transformations in both academic research and chemical industry. Recently, a highly selective and efficient way to synthesize biologically active γ-hydroxy-α,β-unsaturated molecules from Cu-catalyzed vinylogous aerobic oxidation of α,β- and β,γ-unsaturated compounds has been developed. However, the detailed reaction mechanism remains elusive. Herein, we report a density functional theory study on this Cu-catalyzed vinylogous aerobic oxidation of γ,γ-disubstituted α,β- and β,γ-unsaturated isomers. Our computational study unveils detailed mechanism for each elementary step, i.e. deprotonation, O2 activation, and reduction. Besides, the origin of regioselectivity, divergent reactivities of substrates as well as reducing agents, and the byproduct generation have also been investigated. Notably, the copper catalyst retains the + 2 oxidation state through the whole catalytic cycle and plays essential roles in multiple steps. These findings would provide hints on mechanistic studies and future development of transition metal-catalyzed aerobic oxidation reactions.

Abstract
Three-dimensional cage-like natural products represent astounding and long-term challenges in the research endeavors of total synthesis. A central issue that synthetic chemists need to address lies in how to efficiently construct the polycyclic frameworks as well as to install the requisite substituent groups. The diterpenoid alkaloids that biogenetically originate from amination of diterpenes and diversify through late-stage skeletal reorganization belong to such a natural product category. As the characteristic components of the Aconitum and Delphinium species, these molecules display a rich array of biological activities, some of which are used as clinical drugs. More strikingly, their intricate and beautiful architectures have rendered the diterpenoid alkaloids elusive targets in the synthetic community. The successful preparation of these intriguing compounds relies on the development of innovative synthetic strategies.Our laboratory has explored the total synthesis of a variety of diterpenoid alkaloids and their biogenetically related diterpenes over the past decade. In doing so, we have accessed 6 different types of skeletons (atisine-, denudatine-, arcutane-, arcutine-, napelline-, and hetidine-type) and achieved the total synthesis of 6 natural products (isoazitine, dihydroajaconine, gymnandine, atropurpuran, arcutinine, and liangshanone). Strategically, an oxidative dearomatization/Diels-Alder (OD/DA) cycloaddition sequence was widely employed in our synthesis to form the ubiquitous [2.2.2]-bicyclic ring unit and its related ring-distorted derivatives in these complex target molecules. This protocol, in combination with additional bond-forming key steps, allowed us to prepare the corresponding polycyclic alkaloids and a biogenetically associated diterpene. For example, bioinspired C-H activation, aza-pinacol, and aza-Prins cyclizations were used toward a unified approach to the atisine-, denudatine-, and hetidine-type alkaloids via ajaconine intermediates in our first work. To pursue the synthesis of atropurpuran and related arcutine alkaloids, we harnessed a ketyl-olefin radical cyclization to assemble the carbocycle and an aza-Wacker cyclization to construct the unusual pyrrolidine ring. Furthermore, a one-pot alkene cleavage/Mannich cyclization tactic, sequential Robinson annulation, and intramolecular aldol addition were developed, which facilitated the formation of the napelline alkaloid scaffold and the first total synthesis of liangshanone. Finally, the utility of the Mannich cyclization and enyne cycloisomerization reactions allowed for access to the highly functionalized A/E and C/D ring fragments of aconitine (regarded as the "Holy Grail" of diterpenoid alkaloids). This Account provides insight into our synthetic designs and approaches used toward the synthesis of diterpenoid alkaloids and relevant diterpenes. These endeavors lay a foundation for uncovering the biological profiles of associated molecules and also serve as a reference for preparing other three-dimensionally fascinating natural products.

Abstract
A general and practical method for decarboxylative hydroxylation of carboxylic acids was developed through visible light-induced photocatalysis using molecular oxygen as the green oxidant. The addition of NaBH4 to in situ reduce the unstable peroxyl radical intermediate much broadened the substrate scope. Different sp3 carbon-bearing carboxylic acids were successfully employed as substrates, including phenylacetic acid-type substrates, as well as aliphatic carboxylic acids. This transformation worked smoothly on primary, secondary, and tertiary carboxylic acids.

Abstract
Cu/TEMPO catalyst systems are known for the selective transformation of alcohols to aldehydes, as well as for the simultaneous coupling of alcohols and amines to imines under oxidative conditions. In this study, such a Cu/TEMPO catalyst system is found to catalyze the N-formylation of a variety of amines by initial oxidative activation of methanol as the carbonyl source via formaldehyde and formation of N,O-hemiacetals and oxidation of the latter under very mild conditions. A vast range of amines, including aromatic and aliphatic, primary and secondary, and linear and cyclic amines are formylated under these conditions with good to excellent yields. Moreover, paraformaldehyde can be used instead of methanol for the N-formylation.

Abstract
The role of bio- and chemo-catalytic aerobic oxidations in the production of commodity chemicals in a bio-refinery is reviewed. The situation is fundamentally different to that in a petrochemicals refinery where the feedstocks are gaseous or liquid hydrocarbons that are oxidized at elevated temperatures in the vapor or liquid phase under solvent-free conditions. In contrast, the feedstocks in a biorefinery are carbohydrates that are water soluble solids and their conversion will largely involve aerobic oxidations of hydroxyl functional groups in water as the solvent under relatively mild conditions of temperature and pressure. This will require the development and use of cost-effective and environmentally attractive processes using both chemo- and biocatalytic methods for alcohols and polyols.

Abstract
The aerobic Cu/ABNO catalyzed oxidative coupling of alcohols and amines is highlighted in the synthesis of amide bonds in diverse drug-like molecules (ABNO=9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane N-oxyl). The robust method leverages the privileged reactivity of alcohols bearing electronegative hetero- atoms (O, F, N, Cl) in the β-position. The reaction tolerates over 20 unique functional groups and is demonstrated on a 15 mmol scale under air. Steric constraints of the catalyst allow for chemoselective amidation of primary amines in the presence of secondary amines. All catalyst components are commercially available, and the reaction proceeds under mild conditions with retention of stereocenters in both reaction partners, while producing only water as a by-product.

Abstract
Copper salts and organic aminoxyls, such as TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl), are versatile catalysts for aerobic alcohol oxidation. Previous reports in the literature contain conflicting proposals concerning the redox interactions that take place between copper(I) and copper(II) salts with the aminoxyl and hydroxylamine species, TEMPO and TEMPOH, respectively. Here, we reinvestigate these reactions in an effort to resolve the conflicting claims in the literature. Under anaerobic conditions, CuIIX2 salts [X = acetate (OAc), trifluoroacetate (TFA), and triflate (OTf)] are shown to promote the rapid proton-coupled oxidation of TEMPOH to TEMPO: CuIIX2 + TEMPOH → CuIX + TEMPO + HX. In the reaction with acetate, however, slow reoxidation of CuIOAc occurs. This process requires both TEMPO and HOAc and coincides with the reduction of TEMPO to 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine. Analogous reactivity is not observed with trifluoroacetate and triflate species. Overall, the facility of the proton-coupled oxidation of TEMPOH by CuII salts suggests that this process could contribute to catalyst regeneration under aerobic oxidation conditions.

Abstract
The oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl products is an important organic transformation and the products are used in a variety of applications. The development of catalytic methods for selective alcohol oxidation have garnered significant attention in an attempt to find a more sustainable method without any limitations. Copper, in combination with 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidine N-oxyl (TEMPO) and supported by organic ligands, have emerged as the most effective catalysts for selective alcohol oxidation and these catalyst systems are frequently compared to galactose oxidase (GOase). The efficiency of GOase has led to extensive research to mimic the active sites of these enzymes, leading to a variety of Cu/TEMPO· catalyst systems being reported over the years. The mechanistic pathway by which Cu/TEMPO· catalyst systems operate has been investigated by several research groups, which led to partially contradicting mechanistic description. Due to the disadvantages and limitations of employing TEMPO· as co-catalyst, alternative nitroxyl radicals or in situ formed radicals, as co-catalysts, have been successfully evaluated in alcohol oxidation. Herein we discuss the development and mechanistic elucidation of Cu/TEMPO· catalyst systems as biomimetic alcohol oxidation catalysts.
