Abstract
A new strategy for facile access to multifunctionalized furans via N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed cross-coupling/cyclization of ynenones with aldehydes has been explored. This protocol features readily obtainable starting materials, mild and metal-free conditions, broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, excellent yields, and easy scale-up. Synthetic utility of the protocol has been further corroborated through functionalization of complex substrates and postmodifications of the product.

Nat Commun 2024; 15:3683. [PMID: 38693101 PMCID: PMC11063041 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-47951-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024] Open
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, a novel class of transfer hydrogenation agent, cycloheptanone, was successfully employed in metal-free hydrogenation facilitated by iodine. A series of alkenes, triphenylmethyl derivatives, and diphenylmethyl derivatives were reduced to the desired compounds in moderate to excellent yields. The transfer hydrodeuteration of alkenes using α-deuterated cyclododecanone exhibited high regioselectivity. Preliminary mechanism studies confirmed the origins of the two hydrogen atoms involved in the reduction of alkenes. The current study paves the way for the use of ketones as unique transfer hydrogenation agents in chemical synthesis.

Abstract
Herein the palladium-catalyzed cyclizative borylation of allenyl ketones with diboron compounds is reported which involves the carbene boryl migratory insertion as the key step. This reaction features mild conditions, good functional group tolerance and broad substrate scope. Thus, it represents an efficient methodology for the assembly of diverse tri-substituted furyl boronates. In addition, a series of transformations of the resultant multi-substituted furyl boronates were conducted to provide various densely substituted furan derivatives in good yields, further illustrating the potential synthetic utility of this methodology.
