Abstract
Although various types of asymmetric cyclization reactions of 1,6-enynes have been established, simple asymmetric reductive cyclization remains underdeveloped. In this study, the enantioselective reductive cyclization of alkynyl-tethered cyclohexadienones (1,6-enynes) has been developed via a chiral pincer rhodium catalyst, affording cis-hydrobenzofurans and cis-hydroindoles with high enantioselectivities (90-99% ee). Furthermore, several synthetic applications and preliminary inhibitory activity studies against SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro are presented.

Abstract
Herein, we report room temperature, atom-economic protocols for high regio- and enantioselective tandem cycloisomerization-hydroarylation and cycloisomerization-hydroalkenylation of 1,6-enynes leading to vicinal carba-functionalized pyrrolidines, tetrahydrofurans, and cyclopentanes. The latter steps in these processes involve carbonyl-coordination-assisted ortho-C-H activation of aromatic aldehydes and esters, and, a similar, yet rarely seen, β-C-H activation in the case of the acrylates. Synthetically useful enantioselective versions of such reactions are rare and are limited to the C2-H activation of indoles and pyrroles. A similar reaction is also observed with N-vinylphthalimide, which also has a carbonyl group suitable for C-H activation. A dibenzooxaphosphole ligand, (2S,2S',3S,3S')-MeO-BIBOP was uniquely identified as crucial to achieving the challenging regio- and enantioselectivity. This methodology gives access to substituted five-membered carbo- and heterocyclic compounds in good yields and excellent enantioselectivities under a low catalyst loading. A primary KIE of 3.5 is observed in an intermolecular competition experiment with methyl benzoate and d5-methyl benzoate, which indicates that the C-H cleavage is the turnover-limiting step of this process. Unlike the acrylates, which undergoes exclusive hydroalkenylation, a β, γ-unsaturated ester, methyl but-3-enoate, undergoes the highly enantioselective cycloisomerization-coupling sequence with a 1,6-enyne giving either a [2 + 2 + 2]-cycloaddition with (S, S)-BDPP or hydroalkenylation with (2S,2'S,3S,3'S)-MeO-BIBOP depending on the ligand employed. The (E)-configuration of the newly formed double bond at the terminal alkynyl carbon (of the starting enyne) in the hydroalkenylation product of β,γ-unsaturated ester suggests a more classical migratory insertion-β-hydride elimination route for the formation of this product.

Abstract
Carbo- and heterocycles are frequently used as crucial scaffolds in natural products, fine chemicals, and biologically and pharmaceutically active compounds. Transition-metal-catalyzed cyclization of 1,6-enynes has emerged as a powerful strategy for constructing functionalized carbo- and heterocycles. Despite significant progress, the regioselectivity of alkyne functionalization is entirely substrate-dependent. And only exo-cyclization/cross-coupling products can be obtained, while endo-selective cyclization/cross-coupling remains elusive and still poses a formidable challenge. In this study, we disclose a nickel-catalyzed switchable arylation/cyclization of 1,6-enynes in which the nature of the ligand dictates the regioselectivity of alkyne arylation, while the electrophilic trapping reagents determine the selectivity of the cyclization mode. Specifically, using a commercially available 1,10-phenanthroline as a ligand facilitates trans-arylation/cyclization to obtain seven-membered ring products, while a 2-naphthyl-substituted bisbox ligand promotes cis-arylation/cyclization to access six-membered ring products. Diastereoselective cyclizations have also been developed for the synthesis of enantioenriched piperidines and azepanes, which are core structural elements of pharmaceuticals and natural products possessing important biological activities. Furthermore, experimental and density functional theory studies reveal that the regioselectivity of the alkyne arylation process is entirely controlled by the steric hindrance of the ligand; the reaction mechanism involves exo-cyclization followed by Dowd-Beckwith-type ring expansion to form endo-cyclization products.

Abstract
Despite the current progress achieved in asymmetric hydroacylations, highly enantioselective catalytic addition of unfunctionalized aldehydes to internal alkenes remains an unsolved challenge. Here, using a coordination-assisted strategy, we developed a rhodium-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective addition of unfunctionalized aldehydes to internal alkenes such as enamides and β,γ-unsaturated amides. Valuable α-amino ketones and 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds were directly obtained with high enantioselectivity from readily available materials.

Abstract
Here, we report the development of cobalt(I)-catalyzed regioselective allylic alkylation reactions of tertiary allyl carbonates with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. A family of well-defined tetrahedral cobalt(I) complexes bearing commercially available bidentate bis(phosphine) ligands [(P,P)Co(PPh3 )Cl] are synthesized and explored as catalysts in allylic alkylation reactions. The catalyst [(dppp)Co(PPh3 )Cl] (dppp=1,3-Bis(diphenylphosphino)propane) enables the alkylation of a large variety of tertiary allyl carbonates with high yields and excellent regioselectivity for the branched product. Remarkably, this methodology is selective for the activation of tertiary allyl carbonates even in the presence of secondary allyl carbonates. This contrasts with the selectivity observed in cobalt-catalyzed allylic alkylations enabled by visible light photocatalysis. Mechanistic insights by means of experimental and computational investigations support a Co(I)/Co(III) catalytic cycle.

Abstract
A rhodium-catalyzed enantioselective hydroboration/cyclization reaction of 1,6-enynes is achieved by employing a spirosiladiphosphine ligand. The process allows the synthesis of five-membered hetero- and carbocycles bearing a boron handle with high levels of activity and selectivity. Various enynes and organoboranes (HBdan, HBpin, HBmp, and HBamm) have been accommodated, and enynes containing terminal alkynes have been integrated into the process for the first time. The high yields and selectivities of the transformation highlight the synthetic utility of these novel spirosiladiphosphine ligands.

Abstract
The influence of the P-M-P bite angle in diphosphine ligands on selectivity has been observed in various catalytic reactions. A better understanding of the ligand bite angle concept is important for the rational design of efficient catalytic systems. In the present work, the mechanism of cobalt-catalyzed C-H functionalization of aldehydes with enynes and how the diphosphine ligands alter regioselectivity were investigated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The catalytic cycle is initiated by the oxidative cyclization of enynes rather than the oxidative addition of aldehydes. Regioselectivity arises from competing σ-bond metathesis and migratory insertion steps, in which the steric effects of diphosphine ligands are the dominant factors influencing the activation barriers. The calculations indicate that σ-bond metathesis is more challenging and its feasibility is highly dependent on the ligand bite angle. The improved mechanistic understanding will enable further design of transition-metal-catalyzed selective cyclization reactions.

Abstract
Different from the well-investigated enynes, transition-metal-catalyzed carbocyclization reactions of allenynes are more attractive as a result of the unique structure and versatile reactivity of allenes. Herein, we report the first cobalt-catalyzed highly chemo- and stereoselective arylative carbocyclization of 1,6-allenynes with arylboronic acids, affording five-membered carbocycles and heterocycles with moderate to high yields, broad substrate scope, and wide functional group compatibility. Moreover, several mechanistic experiments were conducted to gain insight into the reaction process.

Abstract
A highly enantioselective cobalt-catalyzed desymmetrizing reductive cyclization of alkynyl cyclodiketones has been developed. Under mild reaction conditions by employing HBpin as a reducing agent and ferrocene-based PHOX as a chiral ligand, a series of polycyclic tertiary allylic alcohols bearing contiguous quaternary stereocenters are achieved in moderate to excellent yields with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99%). Broad substrate scope and high functional group compatibility are observed in this reaction. A CoH-catalyzed pathway involving alkyne hydrocobaltation followed by nucleophilic addition to the C[double bond, length as m-dash]O bond is proposed. Synthetic transformations of the product are conducted to demonstrate the practical utilities of this reaction.

Abstract
Transition-metal catalyzed asymmetric cyclization of 1,6-enynes has emerged as a powerful method for the construction of carbocycles and heterocycles. However, very rare examples worked under electrochemical conditions. We report herein a Co-catalyzed enantioselective intramolecular reductive coupling of enynes via electrochemistry using H2O as hydride source. The products were obtained in good yields with high regio- and enantioselectivities. It represents the rare progress on the cobalt-catalyzed enantioselective transformation via electrochemistry with a general substrate scope. DFT studies explored the possible reaction pathways and revealed that the oxidative cyclization of enynes by LCo(I) is more favorable than oxidative addition of H2O or other pathways.

Abstract
We report a rhodium(I)-catalyzed asymmetric cyclohydroformylation reaction of 1,6-enynes with formaldehyde. The reaction of 1,6-enynes with formaldehyde in the presence of a cationic Rh(I) catalyst, such as [Rh(cod)2 ]+ OTf- , and a chiral biaryl diphosphine led to asymmetric cyclohydroformylation to produce aldehydes with higher-order structures highly enantioselectively. This transformation procedure is applicable to a variety of enynes, with wide compatibility in various atoms liking between the alkyne and alkene parts, substituents at the alkyne terminus, and substituents at the alkene part, being converted to newly formed aldehydes in 14% to 90% yields with 50% to 98% ee. The products were further transformed with various nucleophiles to alcohols, an amine, and a diene without loss of chirality at their γ-position.

Although cobalt(I) bis-phosphine complexes have been implicated in many selective C-C bond-forming reactions, until recently relatively few of these compounds have been fully characterized or have been shown to be intermediates in catalytic reactions. In this paper we present a new practical method for the synthesis and isolation of several cobalt(I)-bis-phosphine complexes and their use in Co(I)-catalyzed reactions. We find that easily prepared (in situ generated or isolated) bis-phosphine and (2,6-N-aryliminoethyl)pyridine (PDI) cobalt(II) halide complexes are readily reduced by 1,4-bis-trimethylsilyl-1,4-dihydropyrazine or commercially available lithium nitride (Li3N), leaving behind only innocuous volatile byproducts. Depending on the structures of the bis-phosphines, the cobalt(I) complex crystallizes as a phosphine-bridged species [(P∼P)(X)CoI[μ-(P∼P)]CoI(X)(P∼P)] or a halide-bridged species [(P∼P)CoI[μ-(X)]2CoI(P∼P)]. Because the side-products are innocuous, these methods can be used for the in situ generation of catalytically competent Co(I) complexes for a variety of low-valent cobalt-catalyzed reactions of even sensitive substrates. These complexes are also useful for the synthesis of rare cationic [(P∼P)CoI-η4-diene]+ X- or [(P∼P)CoI-η6-arene]+ X- complexes, which are shown to be excellent single-component catalysts for the following regioselective reactions of dienes: heterodimerizations with ethylene or methyl acrylate, hydroacylation and hydroboration. The reactivity of the single-component catalysts with the in situ generated species are also documented.

Abstract
Density functional theory calculations were performed to investigate the cobalt-catalyzed intermolecular hydroarylation/cyclization of 1,6-enynes with N-pyridylindoles. The computations reveal that the reaction begins with the oxidative cyclization of 1,6-enyne to afford the five-membered cobaltacycle, from which the metal-assisted σ-bond metathesis/C-C reductive elimination led to the final hydroarylation/cyclization product. The initial oxidative cyclization constitutes the rate-determining step of the overall reaction. The steric repulsion and π···π interaction were found to play a crucial role in dictating the experimentally observed enantioselectivity.

Abstract
![]()
A cobalt-catalyzed
intermolecular three-component coupling of arenes,
ethylene, and alkynes was developed using the well-defined air-stable
cationic bis(phosphine) cobalt(I) complex, [(dcype)Co(η6-C7H8)][BArF4]
(dcype = 1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane; BArF4 = B[(3,5-(CF3)2)C6H3]4), as the precatalyst. All three components were
required for turnover and formation of ortho-homoallylated
arene products. A range of directing groups including amide, ketone,
and 2-pyridyl substituents on the arene promoted the reaction. The
cobalt-catalyzed method exhibited broad functional group tolerance
allowing for the late-stage functionalization of two drug molecules,
fenofibrate and haloperidol. A series of control reactions, deuterium
labeling studies, resting state analysis, as well as synthesis of
substrate- and product-bound η6-arene complexes supported
a pathway involving C(sp2)–H activation from a cobalt(III) metallacycle.

Abstract
AbstractCarbonylation, one of the most powerful approaches to the preparation of carbonylated compounds, has received significant attention from researchers active in various fields. Indeed, impressive progress has been made on this subject over the past few decades. Among the various types of carbonylation reactions, asymmetric carbonylation is a straightforward methodology for constructing chiral compounds. Although rhodium-catalyzed enantioselective hydroformylations have been discussed in several elegant reviews, a general review on palladium-catalyzed asymmetric carbonylations is still missing. In this review, we summarize and discuss recent achievements in palladium-catalyzed asymmetric carbonylation reactions. Notably, this review’s contents are categorized by reaction type.

Abstract
One of the major challenges facing organic synthesis in the 21st century is the utilization of abundantly available feedstock chemicals for fine chemical synthesis. Regio- and enantioselective union of easily accessible 1,3-dienes and other feedstocks like ethylene, alkyl acrylates, and aldehydes can provide valuable building blocks adorned with latent functionalities for further synthetic elaboration. Through an approach that relies on mechanistic insights and systematic examination of ligand and counterion effects, we developed an efficient cobalt-based catalytic system [(P∼P)CoX2/Me3Al] (P∼P = bisphosphine) to effect the first enantioselective heterodimerization of several types of 1,3-dienes with ethylene. In addition to simple cyclic and acyclic dienes, siloxy-1,3-dienes participate in this reaction, giving highly functionalized, nearly enantiopure silyl enolates, which can be used for subsequent C-C and C-X bond-forming reactions. As our understanding of the mechanism of this reaction improved, our attention was drawn to more challenging partners like alkyl acrylates (one of the largest volume feedstocks) as the olefin partners instead of ethylene. Prompted by the intrinsic limitations of using aluminum alkyls as the activators for this reaction, we explored the fundamental chemistry of the lesser known (P∼P)Co(I)X species and discovered that in the presence of halide sequestering agents, such as sodium tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate (NaBARF) or (C6F5)3B, certain chiral bisphosphine complexes are superb catalysts for regio- and enantioselective heterodimerization of 1,3-dienes and alkyl acrylates. We have since found that these cationic Co(I) catalysts, most conveniently prepared in situ by reduction of the corresponding cobalt(II) halide complexes by zinc in the presence of NaBARF, promote enantioselective [2 + 2]-cycloaddition between alkynes and an astonishing variety of alkenyl derivatives to give highly functionalized cyclobutenes. In reactions between 1,3-enynes and ethylene, the [2 + 2]-cycloaddition between the alkyne and ethylene is followed by a 1,4-addition of ethylene in a tandem fashion to give nearly enantiopure cyclobutanes with an all-carbon quaternary center, giving a set of molecules that maps well into many medicinally relevant compounds. In another application, we find that the cationic Co(I)-catalysts promote highly selective hydroacylation and 1,2-hydroboration of prochiral 1,3-dienes. Further, we find that a cationic Co(I)-catalyst promotes cycloisomerization followed by hydroalkenylation of 1,6-enynes to produce highly functionalized carbo- and heterocyclic compounds. Surprisingly the regioselectivity of the alkene addition depends on whether it is a simple alkene or an acrylate, and the acrylate addition produces an uncommon Z-adduct. This Account will provide a summary of the enabling basic discoveries and the attendant developments that led to the unique cationic Co(I)-complexes as catalysts for disparate C-C and C-B bond-forming reactions. It is our hope that this Account will stimulate further work with these highly versatile catalysts which are derived from an earth-abundant metal.

Abstract
Ketones are among the most widely used intermediates in organic synthesis, and their synthesis from inexpensive feedstocks could be quite impactful. Regio- and enantioselective hydroacylation reactions of dienes provide facile entry into useful ketone-bearing chiral motifs with an additional latent functionality (alkene) suitable for further elaboration. Three classes of dienes, 2- or 4-monosubstituted and 2,4-disubstituted 1,3-dienes, undergo cobalt(I)-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective hydroacylation, giving products with high enantiomeric ratios (er). These reactions are highly dependent on the ligands, and we have identified the most useful ligands and reaction conditions for each class of dienes. 2-Substituted and 2,4-disubstituted dienes predominantly undergo 1,2-addition, whereas 4-substituted terminal dienes give highly enantioselective 4,1- or 4,3-hydroacylation depending on the aldehyde, aliphatic aldehydes giving 4,1-addition and aromatic aldehydes giving 4,3-addition. Included among the substrates are feedstock dienes, isoprene (US$1.4/kg) and myrcene (US$129/kg), and several common aldehydes. We propose an oxidative dimerization mechanism that involves a Co(I)/Co(III) redox cycle that appears to be initiated by a cationic Co(I) intermediate. Studies of reactions using isolated neutral and cationic Co(I) complexes confirm the critical role of the cationic intermediates in these reactions. Enantioselective 1,2-hydroacylation of 2-trimethylsiloxy-1,3-diene reveals a hitherto undisclosed route to chiral siloxy-protected aldols. Finally, facile syntheses of the anti-inflammatory drug (S)-Flobufen (2 steps, 92% yield, >99:1 er) and the food additive (S)-Dihydrotagetone (1 step, 83% yield; 96:4 er) from isoprene illustrate the power of this method for the preparation of commercially relevant compounds.

Abstract
Diene self-exchange reactions of the 17-electron, formally cobalt(0) cyclooctadienyl precatalyst, (R,R)-(iPrDuPhos)Co(COD) (P 2 CoCOD, (R,R)-iPrDuPhos = 1,2-bis((2R,5R)-2,5-diisopropylphospholano)benzene, COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) were studied using natural abundance and deuterated 1,5-cyclooctadiene. Exchange of free and coordinated diene was observed at ambient temperature in benzene-d 6 solution and kinetic studies support a dissociative process. Both neutral P 2 CoCOD and the 16-electron, cationic cobalt(I) complex, [(R,R)-(iPrDuPhos)Co(COD)][BArF 4] (BArF 4 = B[(3,5-(CF3)2)C6H3]4) underwent instantaneous displacement of the 1,5-cyclooctadiene ligand by carbon monoxide and generated the corresponding carbonyl derivatives. The solid-state parameters, DFT-computed Mulliken spin density and analysis of molecular orbitals suggest an alternative description of P 2 CoCOD as low-spin cobalt(II) with the 1,5-cyclooctadiene acting as a LX2-type ligand. This view of the electronic structure provides insight into the nature of the ligand substitution processes and the remarkable stability of the neutral cobalt complexes toward protic solvents observed during catalytic alkene hydrogenation.

Abstract
A Co-catalyzed highly regio- and enantioselective reductive coupling of alkynes and aldehydes has been developed under visible light photoredox dual catalysis. A variety of enantioenriched allylic alcohols have been obtained by using unsymmetrical internal alkynes and commercially available catalyst, chiral ligand, and reagents. It is noteworthy that this approach has considerable advantages, such as excellent regio- (>95:5 for >40 examples), stereo- (up to >95:5 E/Z), and enantioselectivity (92-99% ee, >35 examples) control, mild reaction conditions, broad substrate scope, and good functional group compatibility, making it a great improvement to enantioselective alkyne-aldehyde reductive coupling reactions.

A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroesterification-cyclization of 1,6-enynes with CO and alcohol was developed to efficiently prepare a variety of enantioenriched γ-lactams bearing a chiral quaternary carbon center and a carboxylic ester group. The approach featured good to high chemo-, region-, and enantioselectivities, high atom economy, and mild reaction conditions as well as broad substrate scope. The correlation between the multiple selectivities of such process and the N-substitutes of the amide linker in the 1,6-enyne substrate has been depicted by the crystallographic evidence and control experiments.
