[PMID: 38926359 PMCID: PMC11208666 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-49664-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Cycloaddition reactions play a pivotal role in synthetic chemistry for the direct assembly of cyclic architectures. However, hurdles remain for extending the C4 synthon to construct diverse heterocycles via programmable [4+n]-cycloaddition. Here we report an atom-economic and modular intermolecular cycloaddition using furan-fused cyclobutanones (FCBs) as a versatile C4 synthon. In contrast to the well-documented cycloaddition of benzocyclobutenones, this is a complementary version using FCB as a C4 reagent. It involves a C-C bond activation and cycloaddition sequence, including a Rh-catalyzed enantioselective [4 + 2]-cycloaddition with imines and an Au-catalyzed diastereoselective [4 + 4]-cycloaddition with anthranils. The obtained furan-fused lactams, which are pivotal motifs that present in many natural products, bioactive molecules, and materials, are inaccessible or difficult to prepare by other methods. Preliminary antitumor activity study indicates that 6e and 6 f exhibit high anticancer potency against colon cancer cells (HCT-116, IC50 = 0.50 ± 0.05 μM) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cells (KYSE-520, IC50 = 0.89 ± 0.13 μM), respectively.

Abstract
A cooperative Rh/achiral phosphoric acid-enabled [3+3] cycloaddition of in situ-generated carbonyl ylides with quinone monoimines has been developed. With the ability to build up the molecular complexity rapidly and efficiently, this method furnishes highly functionalized oxa-bridged benzofused dioxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane scaffolds bearing two quaternary centers in good to excellent yields under mild conditions. Moreover, the utility of the current method was demonstrated by gram-scale synthesis and elaboration of the products into various functionalized oxa-bridged heterocycles.

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
We report herein an unprecedented enantioselective (4+4) cycloaddition of simple 1,3-dienes with azadienes for the construction of fused eight-membered N-heterocycles. In this transformation, the π-Lewis basic Pd(0) catalyst achieves activation of 1,3-dienes to induce nucleophilic addition to azadienes followed by ring cyclization via a selective terminal allylic substitution. Furthermore, highly efficient and diastereoselective derivatizations of the eight-membered rings provide a facile access to diverse enantiopure fused tetra- to hexacyclic compounds with potential application in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
Chiral diarylmethylamides are a privileged skeleton in many bioactive molecules. However, the enantioselective synthesis of such molecules remains a long-standing challenge in organic synthesis. Herein, we report a chiral bifunctional squaramide catalyzed asymmetric aza-Michael addition of amides to in situ generated ortho-quinomethanes, affording enantioenriched diarylmethylamides in good yields with excellent enantioselectivities. This work not only provides a new strategy for the construction of the diarylmethylamides but also represents the practicability of amides as nitrogen-nucleophiles in asymmetric organocatalysis.

Abstract
A unique Pd-catalyzed approach for asymmetric (4+1) annulations via cascade allylation and transient σ-alkyl-Pd(II) initiated methylene Csp3 -H activation is reported. The enolate fragment derived from the decarboxylation of vinyl methylene carbonate is crucial to stabilize the key intermediate. These reactions enable the synthesis of various useful dihydrobenzofurans with excellent enantioselectivity, typically >95 : 5 er, and exclusive (Z)-stereoselectivity. Compared with the well-established annulations via Heck-type C-H activations, this protocol showcases a conceptually new way to generate σ-alkyl-Pd(II) species that could initiate challenging asymmetric Csp3 -H activations.

Abstract
Sulfoxonium ylides are important synthetic precursors in various organic transformations. Their synthetic potential was well explored in the synthesis of various bioactive natural products and pharmaceuticals. Vinyl sulfoxonium ylide is a stabilized sulfoxonium ylide containing an electron-deficient alkene at the ylidic carbon. Similar to α-keto sulfoxonium ylides, these reagents can generate vinyl carbenes in the presence of metals under suitable conditions. These vinyl carbenes can be used for various organic transformations such as X-H (X = C, N, O, S) insertions, annulations, and rearrangement reactions. Due to the dipole structure of the vinyl sulfoxonium ylide, it can undergo electrophilic addition with electrophiles at the α-position. These reagents are used as synthons for various aromatic and heteroaromatic compound syntheses. Moreover, their stability and convenient handling make them potential replacements for thermally less stable vinyl diazo compounds. Herein, we provide an overview of early efforts in this area, with particular emphasis on our own recent development of vinyl sulfoxonium ylide-mediated transformations in the presence and absence of metal catalysis, and also give personal perspectives on the challenges and future scope for improving the application of vinyl sulfoxonium ylides.

Abstract
A formal (3 + 2) cycloaddition of 1,4-enediones with 2-naphthols was established under the catalysis of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid as an organocatalyst, leading to the efficient synthesis of structurally diverse 3-vinylnaphthofurans with high yields and excellent (Z/E)-selectivities (up to 96% yield, all >20:1 Z/E). This formal (3 + 2) cycloaddition involved a cascade reaction process, and the intramolecular hydrogen bond in the structure of 3-vinylnaphthofurans should play an important role in controlling the (Z/E)-selectivity of the newly formed vinyl group. Moreover, this class of 3-vinylnaphthofurans was discovered to have an axial chirality. This work provides an organocatalytic approach for constructing multi-substituted vinylnaphthofurans via a cascade reaction with excellent control of the (Z/E)-selectivity, which will serve as a useful strategy for synthesizing vinylnaphthofurans via in situ construction of the furan core and formation of the vinyl group.

Abstract
A method for the synthesis of allyl substituted γ-butenolides via carbonyl ylide rearrangement of vinyl sulfoxonium ylide-derived carbenes has been developed. At rt, the mechanism involves a carbonyl ylide generation/allyloxy furan formation/[3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement/isomerization sequence for the generation of 3-allyl butenolides. At 70 °C, instead of the final isomerization step, the resulting [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement product undergoes further [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement to produce 5-allyl butenolide. In the absence of the catalyst, the reaction affords a diene via [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement.

Abstract
Over the years, quinone methides have broadly been applied in synthesis and biological systems for synthesizing heterocyclic compounds and biologically active molecules. In this feature article, we have discussed the novel and uncovered reactivity of o-quinone methides, p-quinone methides, aza-o-quinone methides, and indolyl-2-methides with carbenes generated from α-diazocarbonyl compounds and related compounds. Two in situ-generated transient intermediates undergo cycloannulation reactions, metathesis-type reactions, 1,6-conjugate addition reactions, cyclopropanation reactions, and many other transformations to access nitrogen- and oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds and beyond. The reactivity of quinone methides and carbenes is observed in various metal catalysts, Brønsted-acids, Lewis acids, phase transfer catalysts, additives, and visible-light-induced transformations.

Abstract
Medium-sized heterocycles are widespread among a spectrum of structurally intriguing and biologically significant natural products and synthetic pharmaceuticals. Metal-catalyzed high-order dipolar annulations resembling reactions of metal-containing reactive dipoles with dipolarophiles constitute a highly efficient and flexible strategy for constructing medium-sized heterocycles. Mechanistically, these annulation reactions usually proceeding through stepwise pathways are different from the classic high-order pericyclic reactions that follow the Woodward-Hoffman rules. More significantly, asymmetric high-order dipolar annulations using chiral organometallic catalysts have been proven successful for constructing chiral medium-sized heterocycles with high enantio- and diastereoselectivity. This review highlights the impressive advances in this area and is focused on the reactivity, scope, mechanisms and applications of high-order dipolar annulation reactions.

Abstract
Quinone methides are fundamental intermediates for a wide range of reactions in which catalyst stereocontrol is often achieved by hydrogen bonding. Herein, we describe the feasibility of an intramolecular Friedel–Crafts 6π electrocyclization through ortho‐quinone methide iminiums stereocontrolled by a contact ion pair. A disulfonimide catalyst activates racemic trichloroacetimidate substrates and imparts stereocontrol in the cyclization step, providing a new avenue for selective ortho‐quinone methide iminium functionalization. A highly stereospecific oxidation readily transforms the enantioenriched acridanes into rotationally restricted acridiniums. Upon ion exchange, the method selectively affords atropisomeric acridinium tetrafluoroborate salts in high yields and an enantioenrichment of up to 93 : 7 e.r. We envision that ion‐pairing catalysis over ortho‐quinone methide iminiums enables the selective synthesis of a diversity of heterocycles and aniline derivatives with distinct stereogenic units.

Abstract
A simple and novel method for the synthesis of novel 1,3-dioxepine-fused (tricyclic) bispyrazoles is described. It involves a Cs2CO3-mediated O-alkylation of readily available pyrazolone derivatives with dichloromethane as the methylene source followed by PhI(OAc)2-mediated intramolecular oxidative biheteroaryl coupling under mild conditions. This scalable protocol was applied for the preparation of valuable and novel 1,3-dioxepine-fused (tricyclic) bispyrazoles that could find applications in medicinal or material chemistry.

Abstract
AbstractThis review summarizes recent developments in the area of Brønsted acid catalyzed, enantioselective cycloadditions of ortho-quinone methides, ortho-quinone methide imines as well as heterocyclic indole- and pyrrole-based methides. In a straightforward and single-step transformation complex polycyclic N- and O-heterocyclic scaffolds are accessible, with typically good yields and excellent stereocontrol, from simple benzyl and heterobenzyl alcohols upon acid-catalyzed dehydration. The transient precursors are hydrogen-bonded to a chiral Brønsted acid which controls the enantioselectivity of the process.1 Introduction2 Cycloadditions of ortho-Quinone Methides2.1 Brønsted Acid Catalyzed Processes2.2 Cooperative Brønsted Acid/Transition-Metal-Catalyzed Processes3 Cycloadditions of ortho-Quinone Methide Imines4 Cycloadditions of Indolyl-3-methides5 Cycloadditions of Indolyl-2-methides5.1 Brønsted Acid Catalyzed Processes5.2 Cooperative Brønsted Acid/Transition-Metal-Catalyzed Processes6 Cycloadditions of Pyrrolyl-2-methides7 Cycloadditions of Pyrrolyl-3-methides8 Conclusions

Abstract
Developing efficient strategies for synthesizing novel diazocine compounds is valuable because their use has been limited by their synthetic accessibility. This work describes the catalytic (4+3) cycloaddition reaction of carbonyl ylides with azoalkenes generated in situ. The rhodium-catalyzed cascade reaction features good atom and step economy, providing the first access to oxo-bridged diazocines. The product could be synthesized on a gram scale and converted into diversely substituted dihydroisobenzofurans.

Abstract
Herein, we report a facile and highly atom-economic approach to 2-phosphafurans by using simple 2-chloroethylphosphine and acetylenic ketones. The key step of this protocol utilizes the Lewis acidity of electrophilic phosphinidenes to induce an intramolecular cyclization with enones. Dearomative hetero-Diels-Alder reactions of 2-phosphafurans provide two series of bicyclic phosphacycles. This rare synthetic application of Lewis acidity of electrophilic phosphinidene complexes represents a new frontier of phosphinidene chemistry.

Abstract
Malonate enol ethers are afforded in one step by condensation of cyclic ketones with α-diazomalonates under [CpRu(CH3CN)3][BArF] catalysis. The dual reactivity of these 2-vinyloxymalonates can be used to expand the classical range of cyclizations derived from carbonyl ylide intermediates.

Abstract
Since the discovery of carbocations in 1901, the past 120 years have witnessed many marvelous advances in the chemistry of carbocations. The state-of-the-art research in this field is to overcome the intrinsic instability and high reactivity of the prochiral carbocationic intermediates to develop catalytic asymmetric reactions. Such transformations enable the facile synthesis of structurally diverse value-added products from readily available starting materials such as alkenes, alcohols, and carbonyl derivatives, and enjoy high and even perfect atom-economy in most cases. Notably, such allows catalytic stereoconvergent synthesis from racemic substrates and can realize regioselectivity in olefin functionalization reactions complementary to radical processes. With the rapid developments in modern asymmetric organocatalysis, a variety of highly enantioselective protocols evolving prochiral carbocationic intermediates have been achieved by employing three strategies, namely chiral ion-pairing, chiral nucleophile, or chiral carbenium ion strategy. This feature article aims to summarize the exciting advances in this emerging area and briefly showcase the possible mechanisms. The advantages and limitations of each strategy are presented as well as their synthetic applications in the synthesis of natural products or bioactive compounds.

Abstract
A cooperative catalytic strategy is developed for a copper-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular C-arylation reaction with ureas as the co-catalysts. By forming hydrogen bonds with 1,3-dicarbonyl structures, ureas can activate the substrates, stabilize the carbanion intermediates and the products, and fix the syn-configurations of 1,3-dicarbonyl structures. They help enhance the reactivity, prevent side reactions and improve the enantioselectivities.

Abstract
Polyketide oligomers containing the structure of tetracyclic isochroman comprise a large class of natural products with diverse activity. However, a general and stereoselective method towards the rapid construction of this structure remains challenging due to the inherent instability and complex stereochemistry of polyketide. By mimicking the biosynthetic pathway of this structurally diverse set of natural products, we herein develop an asymmetric hetero-Diels–Alder reaction of in-situ generated isochromene and ortho-quinonemethide. A broad range of tetracyclic isochroman frameworks are prepared in good yields and excellent stereoinduction (up to 95% ee) from readily available α-propargyl benzyl alcohols and 2-(hydroxylmethyl) phenols under mild conditions. This direct enantioselective cascade reaction is achieved by a Au(I)/chiral Sc(III) bimetallic catalytic system. Experimental studies indicate that the key hetero-Diels-Alder reaction involves a stepwise pathway, and the steric hindrance between in-situ generated isochromene and t-Bu group of Sc(III)/N,N’-dioxide complex is responsible for the enantioselectivity in the hetero-Diels–Alder reaction step. General and stereoselective synthesis of tetracyclic isochroman-containing polyketide oligomers is challenging. Here, the authors report on an Au(I)/chiral Sc(III) bimetallic catalyst for a biomimetic asymmetric hetero-Diels–Alder reaction for in-situ generation of isochromene and ortho-quinonemethide.

Abstract
A sequential enantioselective conjugate addition/hydroalkoxylation between in situ generated ortho-quinomethanes and ynones by combining bifunctional squaramide and DBU catalysis has been developed. A variety of eight-membered cyclic ethers with two contiguous tertiary stereocenters were obtained in high yields with excellent stereoselectivities. This reaction not only provides a new strategy for constructing enantioenriched eight-membered cyclic ethers but also demonstrates the practicability of ynones as C4-syntons for the synthesis of chiral medium-membered rings.

Abstract
Singlet nucleophilic carbenes (SNCs) containing only one heteroatom donor remain underutilized in chemical synthesis. We recently discovered that visible-light-induced SNC intermediates can be trapped by fluorinated ketones via 1,2-carbonyl addition to afford benzoin-type products. This discovery represents a rare example of nucleophilic carbenes reacting with ketones and delivers an efficient, user-friendly, and scalable process for accessing fluorinated tertiary alcohol derivatives driven only by light circumventing the use of exogenous catalysts or additives.

Abstract
A base-promoted (4 + 2) cyclization of aza-o-quinone methides (aza-o-QMs) in situ generated from N-(o-chloromethyl)aryl amides was established. In this approach, azlactones were utilized as competent two-atom reaction partners to undergo (4 + 2) cyclization with aza-o-QMs, which afforded a series of dihydroquinolinone derivatives in overall good yields (up to 98%). This protocol has not only advanced the development of aza-o-QM-involved reactions, but also offered a useful method for constructing biologically important dihydroquinolinone frameworks.

Abstract
Reported in this work is a water triggered chemo-divergent enantioselective spiro-annulation and cascade reaction of ortho-quinone methides (o-QMs) with α-thiocyanato indanones catalyzed by a chiral organic base. In the case of spiro-annulation, the use of trace amount of water as additive is critical to achieve high enantioselectivity (up to 96 % ee). We found that a cascade reaction was enabled by just tuning the ratio of water in solvent. Accordingly, two new highly efficient asymmetric reactions for the divergent synthesis of spiro- and fused-indanone scaffolds with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99 % ee) were developed. Mechanistic investigations suggest that interfacial hydrogen bonding may play an important role in achieving the switchable reaction pathways.

Abstract
The direct, catalytic dehydrative substitution of alcohols is a challenging, yet highly desirable process in the development of more sustainable approaches to organic chemistry. This review outlines recent advances in Brønsted acid-catalysed dehydrative substitution reactions for C-C, C-O, C-N and C-S bond formation. The wide range of processes that are now accessible using simple alcohols as the formal electrophile are highlighted, while current limitations and therefore possible future directions for research are also discussed.

Abstract
A Michael addition initiated cyclopropanation/[1,5]-hydrogen shift has been developed for the enantioselective synthesis of Rauhut-Currier products. The reaction of α-alkyl diazoesters and in situ generated o-quinone methides proceeds in the presence of chiral oxazaborolidinium ion, providing Z-stereocontrolled Rauhut-Currier products in high yields (up to 96%) with excellent Z/E selectivities (>20:1) and enantioselectivities (up to >99% ee). The synthetic utility was illustrated by conversion of the product to 3,4-dihydrocoumarins with two adjacent chiral stereocenters.
