Abstract
Hindered ethers are ubiquitous in natural products and bioactive molecules. However, developing an efficient method for the stereocontrolled synthesis of all stereoisomers of chiral hindered ethers is highly desirable but challenging. Here we show a strategy that utilizes in situ-generated water as a nucleophile in an asymmetric cascade reaction involving two highly reactive intermediates, 3-furyl methyl cations and ortho-quinone methides (o-QMs), to synthesize chiral hindered ethers. The Ca(II)/Au(I) synergistic catalytic system enables the control of diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity by selecting suitable chiral phosphine ligands in this cascade hydration/1,4-addition reaction, affording all four stereoisomers of a diverse range of chiral tetra-aryl substituted ethers with high diastereoselectivities (up to >20/1) and enantioselectivities (up to 95% ee). This work provides an example of chiral Ca(II)/Au(I) bimetallic catalytic system controlling two stereogenic centers via a cascade reaction in a single operation.

Abstract
Herein, we prepare a new array of N-(α-furanyl) alkyl sulfoximines via a gold catalyzed reaction of enynone with sulfoximine in moderate to very good yields. The reaction involves Michael addition of sulfoximine to enynone, followed by intramolecular cyclization. The presence of two chiral centres led to the formation of a mixture of diastereomers approximately in a 1 : 1 ratio. The salient features of the protocol include broad substrate scope, high efficiency and high yields. The synthetic utility of the protocol is explored using Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling and mild, metal-free opening of the furan ring.

Abstract
Phosphine-catalyzed cascade isomerization/annulation has been developed to realize a diastereoselective synthesis of allenes installed on the hexahydropentalene skeleton, which contains five chiral centers (and one axial chirality). This reaction tolerated a broad range of allenoates and enynes. The allene products were transformed to various halogen-substituted fused-ring compounds.

Abstract
It is challenging to enantioselectively construct molecules bearing multiple nonadjacent stereocenters, in contrast to those bearing a single stereocenter or adjacent stereocenters. Herein, we report an enantio- and diastereoselective synthesis of substituted chiral allenes with nonadjacent axial and two central chiral centers through a combination of retro-oxa-Michael addition and palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allenylic alkylation. This methodology exhibits good functional-group compatibility, and the corresponding allenylic alkylated compounds, including flavonoid frameworks, are obtained with good yields and diastereoselectivities and excellent enantioselectivities (all >95% ee). Furthermore, the scalability of the current synthetic protocol was proven by performing a gram-scale reaction.

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.

Abstract
In recent years, N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) have gained recognition as versatile molecules capable of acting as organocatalysts in various reactions, particularly through the activation of aldehydes via Breslow-type adducts. This organocatalytic activation has enabled the production of numerous 3,4-dihydropyran-2-ones and related derivatives. In this review, we provide an overview of the production of 3,4-dihydropyran-2-ones and derivatives via organocatalytic processes involving NHCs over the past eight years. These processes involve the use of a diverse range of substrates, catalysts, and reaction conditions, which can be classified into [4+2]-and [3+3]-type cycloadditions, primarily aimed at synthesizing this skeleton due to its biological activity and multiple stereocenters. These processes are scaled up to the gram scale, and the resulting products are often directed towards epimerization and functionalization to produce more complex molecules with potential applications in the biological field. Finally, we provide a perspective and the future directions of this topic in organic synthesis.

The concurrent construction of 1,3-stereocenters remains a challenge. Herein, we report the development of stereoselective union of a point chiral center with allenyl axial chirality in 1,3-position by Pd-catalyzed asymmetric allenylic alkylation between racemic allenyl carbonates and indanone-derived β-ketoesters. Various target products bearing a broad range of functional groups were afforded in high yield (up to 99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98% ee) and good diastereoselectivities (up to 13:1 dr).

We disclose herein the first example of merging photoredox catalysis and copper catalysis for radical 1,4-carbocyanations of 1,3-enynes. Alkyl N-hydroxyphthalimide esters are utilized as radical precursors, and the reported mild and redox-neutral protocol has broad substrate scope and remarkable functional group tolerance. This strategy allows for the synthesis of diverse multi-substituted allenes with high chemo- and regio-selectivities, also permitting late stage allenylation of natural products and drug molecules.

In contrast to the widely explored methods for the asymmetric synthesis of molecules bearing a single stereocenter or adjacent stereocenters, the concurrent construction of 1,3-stereogenic centers in an enantio- and diastereoselective manner remains a challenge, especially in acyclic systems. Herein, we report an enantio- and diastereodivergent construction of 1,3-nonadjacent stereocenters bearing allenyl axial and central chirality through synergistic Pd/Cu-catalyzed dynamic kinetic asymmetric allenylation with racemic allenylic esters. The protocol is suitable for a wide range of substrates including the challenging allenylic esters with less sterically bulky substituents and provided chiral allenylic products bearing 1,3-nonadjacent stereocenters with high levels of enantio- and diastereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr and >99% ee). Furthermore, several representative transformations involving axial-to-central chirality transfer were conducted, affording useful structural motifs containing nonadjacent stereocenters in a diastereodivergent manner.

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
A regiodivergent nickel-catalyzed hydrocyanation of 1-aryl-4-silyl-1,3-diynes is reported. When appropriate bisphosphine and phosphine-phosphite ligands are applied, the same starting materials can be converted into two different enynyl nitriles with good yields and high regioselectivities. The DFT calculations unveiled that the structural features of different ligands bring divergent alkyne insertion modes, which in turn lead to different regioselectivities. Moreover, the synthetic value of the cyano-containing 1,3-enynes has been demonstrated with several downstream transformations.

A bifunctional amino sulfonamide-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition of aldehydes to alkenyl alkynyl ketimines as reactive surrogates for enones has been developed. Use of a phenylcyclopropane-based amino sulfonamide catalyst, which can activate and orient the ketimines through hydrogen bonding, affords the desired conjugate adducts with high chemo-, diastereo- and enantioselectivity.

Abstract
A chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective mono-hydroamidation of (un)symmetrical 1,3-diynes is described. Key for the success of this novel transformation is the utilization of an advanced palladium catalyst system with the specific ligand Neolephos. The synthetic value of this general approach to synthetically useful α-alkynyl-α, β-unsaturated amides is showcased by diversification of several structurally complex molecules and marketed drugs. Control experiments and density-functional theory (M06L-SMD) computations also suggest the crucial role of the substrate in controlling the regioselectivity of unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes.

Abstract
Chiral molecules with multiple stereocenters are widely present in natural products and pharmaceuticals, whose absolute and relative configurations are both critically important for their physiological activities. In spite of the fact that a series of ingenious strategies have been developed for asymmetric diastereodivergent catalysis, most of these methods are limited to the divergent construction of point chirality. Here we report an enantioselective and diastereodivergent synthesis of trisubstituted allenes by asymmetric additions of oxazolones to activated 1,3-enynes enabled by chiral phosphoric acid (CPA) catalysis, where the divergence of the allenic axial stereogenicity is realized by modifications of CPA catalysts. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are performed to elucidate the origin of diastereodivergence by the stacking- and stagger-form in the transition state (TS) of allene formation step, as well as to disclose a Münchnone-type activation mode of oxazolones under Brønsted acid catalysis.

Abstract
A small-molecule collection with structural diversity and complexity is a prerequisite to using either drug candidates or chemical probes for drug discovery and chemical-biology investigations, respectively. Over the past 12 years, we have engaged in developing efficient diversity-oriented cascade strategies for the synthesis of topologically diverse skeletons incorporating biologically relevant structural motifs such as O- and N-heterocycles, fused polycycles, and multifunctionalized allenes. In particular, we have highlighted the use of simple, linear, and densely functionalized molecular platforms in these reactions.This account details our efforts in the design of novel molecular platforms for use in metal- and organo-catalyzed cascade reactions, which include 2-(1-alknyl)-2-alken-1-ones (yne-enones) for heterocyclization/cross-coupling cascades, heterocyclization/cycloaddition cascades, nucleophilic addition/cross-coupling cascades, nucleophilic addition/heterocyclization cascades, and so on. Moreover, this Account outlines corresponding mechanistic insights, computational information, and applications of these cascades in the construction of various highly substituted carbo- and heterocycles as well as highly functionalized acyclic compounds, e.g., allenes and dienes. In addition to yne-enones, we evolved the functional groups of our original yne-enones to provide a series of yne-enone variants, which resulted in products with complementary reactivities.The reactivity profile of the yne-enones is defined by the presence of an alkyne moiety and a conjugated enone unit and their mutual through-bond connectivity. Owing to the conceptually rapid development of carbophilic activation, we have identified a series of efficient catalytic systems consisting of metal catalysts, including Pd, Au, and Rh complexes, for diversity-oriented cascade catalysis, allowing various unprecedented reactions to be achieved through different-types of reaction intermediates, including all-carbon metal 1,n-dipoles, furan-based o-quinodimethanes (oQDMs), and allenyl-metal species. In addition to commonly known transition-metal catalytic activity, the Lewis acidity of these complexes is crucial to accomplish the corresponding transformation. In addition, highly enantioselective gold(I)-catalyzed heterocyclization/cycloaddition cascades of yne-enones and their variants were achieved by the application of bisphosphines (e.g., Cn-TunePhos), monophosphines, and our developed "Ming-Phos" as chiral ligands. Importantly, Ming-Phos ligands exhibited excellent performance in gold-catalyzed mechanistically distinct [3 + n]-cycloaddition reactions, in which the chiral sulfinamide moiety is possibly responsible for the interaction with the substrate to control enantioselectivity. Subsequently, we demonstrated that the easily prepared polymer-supported Ming-Phos ligand could be applied for heterogeneously gold(I)-catalyzed asymmetric cycloaddition with good stereocontrol. With metal-free catalysis, the divergent functionalization of yne-enones provides numerous synthetic outlets for structure diversification. For example, yne-enones are particularly attractive for use as precursors of various chiral and achiral heterocycles, such as pyrazoles, isoxazoles, pyrroles, and pyrans, etc.

Abstract
A dual catalytic chemo-selective cross-coupling reaction of two enals is developed. One enal (without α-substitution) is activated by an NHC catalyst to form an acylazolium enolate intermediate that undergoes Michael-type addition to another enal molecule bearing an alkynyl substituent. Mechanistic studies indicate that non-covalent interactions between the alkynyl enal and the NHC·HX catalyst play important roles in substrate activation and enantioselectivity control. Many of the possible side reactions are not observed. Our reaction provides highly chemo- and diastereo-selective access to chiral lactones containing functionalizable 1,3-enyn units with excellent enantioselectivities (95 to >99% ee). An NHC-catalyzed dual activation of two different enals is disclosed with both covalent and non-covalent activation pathways involved.![]()

Abstract
Herein, we report an enantioselective dehydrative γ-arylation of α-indolyl propargylic alcohols with phenols via organocatalysis, which provides efficient access to chiral tetrasubstituted allenes and naphthopyrans in high yields with excellent regio- and enantioselectivities under mild conditions. This method features the use of cheaply available naphthols/phenols as the C-H aryl source and liberating water as the sole byproduct. Control experiments suggest that the excellent enantioselectivity and remote regioselectivity stem from dual hydrogen-bonding interaction with the chiral phosphoric acid catalyst.

Abstract
Among about 150 identified allenic natural products, the exocyclic allenes constitute a major subclass. Substantial efforts are devoted to the construction of axially chiral allenes, however, the strategies to prepare chiral exocyclic allenes are still rare. Herein, we show an efficient strategy for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral exocyclic allenes with the simultaneous control of axial and central chirality through copper(I)-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular reductive coupling of 1,3-enynes to cyclohexadienones. This tandem reaction exhibits good functional group compatibility and the corresponding optically pure exocyclic allenes bearing cis-hydrobenzofuran, cis-hydroindole, and cis-hydroindene frameworks, are obtained with high yields (up to 99% yield), excellent diastereoselectivities (generally >20:1 dr) and enantioselectivities (mostly >99% ee). Furthermore, a gram-scale experiment and several synthetic transformations of the chiral exocyclic allenes are also presented.

Abstract
Various new transformations of gem-difluoroalkenes leading to trifluoromethyl substituted compounds have been well established in the past years. However, the development of new transformations of gem-difluoroenynes lags much behind. Herein is reported the fluoroarylation of 1,1-difluoro-1,3-enynes with aryl halides in the presence of silver fluoride affording trisubstituted trifluoromethyl allenes under the catalysis of palladium. The reaction features mild conditions, high functional-group tolerance, and high regioselectivity.

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.

An organocatalytic asymmetric enantioselective domino oxa-Michael-Mannich-[1,3]-amino rearrangement reaction of N-tosylsalicylimines with a wide range of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes utilizing diarylprolinol silyl ether catalysis is described. The catalytic reactions proceed with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee) to produce the corresponding chair N-tosylimines-chromenes with a yield of up to 99%, tolerating a range of functional groups. This methodology offers a new method with great potential to further extend the synthetic power and versatility of chiral aminocatalysis.

Abstract
The rapid enantioselective synthesis of valuable building blocks and pharmaceutically important compounds from easily accessible precursors is one of the major areas of focus in organic chemistry. In this context, 2-activated 1,3-enyne has emerged as a powerful synthon in recent years for the efficient synthesis of enantioenriched furans, allenes, 4-H-pyrans, and 4-isoxazolines, which are privileged scaffolds in bioactive compounds and natural products. This review will cover the history of the development of 2-activated 1,3-enyne in enantioselective synthesis along with the corresponding mechanisms, which may motivate further development in this area to forge more complex and valuable molecules.

Abstract
The general enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral disubstituted allenes from prochiral starting materials remains a long-standing challenge in organic synthesis. Here, we report an efficient enantio- and chemoselective copper hydride catalyzed semireduction of conjugated enynes to furnish 1,3-disubstituted allenes using water as the proton source. This protocol is sufficiently mild to accommodate an assortment of functional groups including keto, ester, amino, halo, and hydroxyl groups. Additionally, applications of this method for the selective synthesis of monodeuterated allenes and chiral 2,5-dihydropyrroles are described.
