Abstract
The activation of esters by strong Lewis acids via the formation of covalent adducts is a classic strategy to give reactivity; however, this approach frequently incurs limited turnover due to the low efficiency in the dissociation of catalyst from a stable catalyst-product complex. While the use of some weak interaction catalysts that can easily dissociate from any bonding complexes in the reaction system would solve this catalyst turnover problem, the poor catalytic activity in the ester activation that can be provided by these noncovalent forces in turn sets up a formidable challenge. Herein, we describe the activation and catalytic transformation of esters by weak interactions, which provides a promising platform to reconcile the catalytic activity and turnover problems. Several tailored chalcogen-bonding catalysts were developed for the activation of esters, enabling achieving several inherently low reactive Diels-Alder reactions as well as the ring-opening polymerization of lactones through weak chalcogen bonding interactions. This supramolecular catalysis approach is particularly highlighted by its capability to promote some uncommon Diels-Alder reactions involving using dienes bearing electron-withdrawing groups coupled by α,β-unsaturated ester as dienophiles and substrate incorporating competitive Lewis basic sites, in which typical strong Lewis acids showed low catalytic efficiency, while representative hydrogen and halogen bonding catalysts were inactive.

Abstract
The utility of unconventional noncovalent interactions (NCIs) such as chalcogen bonding has lately emerged as a robust platform to access synthetically difficult glycosides stereoselectively. Herein, we disclose the versatility of a phosphonochalcogenide (PCH) catalyst to facilitate access into the challenging, but biologically interesting 7-membered ring α,α'-C-disubstituted oxepane core through an α-selective strain-release C-glycosylation. Methodically, this strategy represents a switch from more common but entropically less desired macrocyclizations to a thermodynamically favored ring-expansion approach. In light of the general lack of stereoselective methods to access C-septanosides, a remarkable palette of silyl-based nucleophiles can be reliably employed in our method. This include a broad variety of useful synthons, such as easily available silyl-allyl, silyl-enol ether, silyl-ketene acetal, vinylogous silyl-ketene acetal, silyl-alkyne and silylazide reagents. Mechanistic investigations suggest that a mechanistic shift towards an intramolecular aglycone transposition involving a pentacoordinate silicon intermediate is likely responsible in steering the stereoselectivity.

Abstract
Chalcogen bond catalysis, particularly cationic hypervalent chalcogen bond catalysis, is considered to be an effective strategy for organocatalysis. In this work, the cationic hypervalent chalcogen bond catalysis for the Povarov reaction between N-benzylideneaniline and ethyl vinyl ether was investigated by density functional theory (DFT). The catalytic reaction involves the cycloaddition process and the proton transfer process, and the rate-determining step is the cycloaddition process. Cationic hypervalent tellurium derivatives bearing CF3 and F groups exhibit superior catalytic activity. For the rate-determining step, the Gibbs free energy barrier decreases as the positive electrostatic potential of the chalcogen bond catalysts increases. More importantly, the Gibbs free energy barrier has a strong linear correlation with the electrostatic energy of the chalcogen bond in the catalyst-substrate complex. Furthermore, the catalytic reactions include the endo pathway and exo pathway. The C-H⋅⋅⋅π interaction between the substituent of the ethyl vinyl ether and the aryl ring of the N-benzylideneaniline contributes to the endo-selectivity of the reaction. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of chalcogen bond catalysis, providing insights for designing chalcogen bond catalysts with high performance.

Abstract
The use of noncovalent interactions (NCIs) has received significant attention as a pivotal synthetic handle. Recently, the exploitation of unconventional NCIs has gained considerable traction in challenging reaction manifolds such as glycosylation due to their capacity to facilitate entry into difficult-to-access sugars and glycomimetics. While investigations involving oxacyclic pyrano- or furanoside scaffolds are relatively common, methods that allow the selective synthesis of biologically important iminosugars are comparatively rare. Here, we report the capacity of a phosphonochalcogenide (PCH) to catalyze the stereoselective α-iminoglycosylation of iminoglycals with a wide array of glycosyl acceptors with remarkable protecting group tolerance. Mechanistic studies have illuminated the counterintuitive role of the catalyst in serially activating both the glycosyl donor and acceptor in the up/downstream stages of the reaction through chalcogen bonding (ChB). The dynamic interaction of chalcogens with substrates opens up new mechanistic opportunities based on iterative ChB catalyst engagement and disengagement in multiple elementary steps.

Abstract
A biscyclen molecular cabin, synthesized by connecting two cyclen macrocycles with four linkages, entraps a Li+···H2O···Li+ trimer with a water molecule clamped by two Li+ ions. This configuration results in strongly polarized water, characterized by a water proton resonance shift of up to 10.00 ppm. The arrangement facilitates unprecedented O-centered chalcogen bonds between the lone pairs of pyridinyl nitrogen atoms and polarized water oxygen, as confirmed by X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and theoretical calculations. Further observation of O-centered chalcogen bonding in a H2O·(LiCl)2 cluster suggests its widespread presence in hydrated salt systems.

Abstract
Harnessing unconventional noncovalent interactions (NCIs) is emerging as a formidable synthetic approach in difficult-to-access glycosidic chemical space. C-Glycosylation, in particular, has gained a flurry of recent attention. However, most reported methods are restricted to the relatively facile access to α-C-glycosides. Herein, we disclose a β-stereoselective glycosylation of indoles by employing a phosphonoselenide catalyst. The robustness of this protocol is exemplified by its amenability for reaction at both the indolyl C- and N- reactivity sites. In contrast to previous reports, in which the chalcogens were solely involved in Lewis acidic activation, our mechanistic investigation unraveled that the often neglected flanking aromatic substituents of phosphonoselenides can substantially contribute to catalysis by engaging in π-interactions. Computations and NMR spectroscopy indicated that the chalcogenic and aromatic components of the catalyst can be collectively exploited to foster conformational distortion of the glycal away from the usual half-chair to the boat conformation, which liberates the convex β-face for nucleophilic attack.

Abstract
Scavengers that capture reactive chemical substances are used to prevent the decomposition of materials. However, in the field of catalysis, the development of scavengers that inhibit background pathways has attracted little attention, although the concept will open up an otherwise inaccessible reaction space. In catalytic bromination, fast non-catalyzed background reactions disturb the catalytic control of the selectivity, even when using N-bromoamide reagents, which have a milder reactivity than bromine (Br2 ). Here, we developed a trans-cyclooctene (TCO) bearing a 2-pyridylethyl group to efficiently retard background reactions by capturing Br2 in bromocyclization using N-bromosuccinimide. The use of less than a stoichiometric amount of the TCO was sufficient to inhibit non-catalyzed reactions, and mechanistic studies using the TCO revealed that in situ-generated Br2 provides non-catalyzed reaction pathways based on a chain mechanism. The TCO is useful as an additive for improving enantioselectivity and regioselectivity in catalytic reactions. Cooperative systems using the TCO with selective catalysts offer an alternative strategy for optimizing catalyst-controlled selectivity during bromination. Moreover, it also served as an indicator of Br2 involved in catalytic reaction pathways; thus, the TCO was useful as a probe for mechanistic investigations into the involvement of Br2 in bromination reactions of interest.

Abstract
Telluronium salts [Ar2 MeTe]X were synthesized, and their Lewis acidic properties towards a number of Lewis bases were addressed in solution by physical and theoretical means. Structural X-ray diffraction analysis of 21 different salts revealed the electrophilicity of the Te centers in their interactions with anions. Telluroniums' propensity to form Lewis pairs was investigated with OPPh3 . Diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy suggested that telluroniums can bind up to three OPPh3 molecules. Isotherm titration calorimetry showed that the related heats of association in 1,2-dichloroethane depend on the electronic properties of the substituents of the aryl moiety and on the nature of the counterion. The enthalpies of first association of OPPh3 span -0.5 to -5 kcal mol-1 . Study of the affinity of telluroniums for OPPh3 by state-of-the-art DFT and ab-initio methods revealed the dominant Coulombic and dispersion interactions as well as an entropic effect favoring association in solution. Intermolecular orbital interactions between [Ar2 MeTe]+ cations and OPPh3 are deemed insufficient on their own to ensure the cohesion of [Ar2 MeTe ⋅ Bn ]+ complexes in solution (B=Lewis base). Comparison of Grimme's and Tkatchenko's DFT-D4/MBD-vdW thermodynamics of formation of higher [Ar2 MeTe ⋅ Bn ]+ complexes revealed significant molecular size-dependent divergence of the two methodologies, with MBD yielding better agreement with experiment.

Abstract
A new series of unsymmetrical phenyl tellurides derived from 2-N-(quinolin-8-yl) benzamide ligand has been synthesized in a practical manner by the copper-catalyzed method by using diaryl ditelluride and Mg as a reductant at room temperature. In order to augment the Lewis acidity of these newly formed unsymmetrical monotellurides, these have been transformed into corresponding unsymmetrical 2-N-(quinolin-8-yl)benzamide tellurium cations. Subsequently, these Lewis acidic tellurium cations were used as chalcogen bonding catalysts, enabling the synthesis of various substituted 1,2-dihydroquinolines by activating ketones with anilines under mild conditions. Moreover, the synthesized 2-N-(quinolin-8-yl)benzamide phenyl tellurium cation has also catalyzed the formation of β-amino alcohols in high regioselectivity by effectively activating epoxides at room temperature. Mechanistic insight by 1 H and 19 F NMR study, electrostatic surface potential (ESP map), control reaction in which tellurium cation reacted explosively with epoxide, suggested that the enhanced Lewis acidity of tellurium center seems responsible for efficient catalytic activities under mild conditions enabling β-amino alcohols with excellent regioselectivity and 1,2-dihydroquinolines with trifluoromethyl, nitro, and pyridylsubstitution, which were difficult to access.

Abstract
A practical method for C(sp3)-B bond activation was developed. Using a combination of alkyl trifluoroborates and N-iodosuccinimide (NIS), various C(sp3)-heteroatom bonds were readily generated in an efficient manner. Mechanistic studies revealed the bifunctional ability of NIS: mediating the formation of reactive halogenated intermediates and activating them via halogen bonding. This electrophilic activation of the reaction center enables the utilization of general heteroatom nucleophiles, which are used in a limited capacity in traditional 1,2-metalate rearrangements.

Abstract
Density functional theory calculations at the M06-2X/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory have been used to examine the Nitroso-Diels-Alder (N-D-A) cycloaddition reaction between the CH3N=O and cis-1,3-butadiene in the presence of PO2X (X=F, Cl, OH) as a catalyst. The effect of the above PO2X compounds on the activation energy of the N-D-A reaction, has been studied here. In the first stage, the energies of two different bonding interactions, via P⋯N versus P⋯O binding, between the PO2X and CH3N=O molecules were calculated. The results showed that the largest values of the interaction energy between the above molecules belong to the PO2F, when connects to the nitrogen atom of the CH3N=O. Also, calculations showed that all the above PO2X compounds, decrease the activation energies of N-D-A reaction studied here via both P⋯N and P⋯O interactions. However, the largest effect on activation energies of the reaction belongs to the PO2F catalyst when acts via P⋯N bonding. The activation strain model (ASM) was used to analyze the influence of the PO2X catalyst on the studied reaction. The quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis were performed to understand the nature of forming interactions at the TS structures. The results of this study showed that the PO2X (X=F, Cl, OH) compounds may be suggested as efficient catalysts for N-D-A reactions.

The macrocycle is synthesized via chloride abstraction from bis(p-methoxyphenyl) tellurium dichloride (p-MeOC6H5)2TeCl2 (1) by silver salts AgMX4 (MX4 = BF4-, and ClO4-) resulting in in situ generated di-cationic tetraorganoditelluroxane units; two such units are held together by two weak anions μ2-MX4, bridging to form 12-membered di-cationic macrocycles [((p-MeO-C6H4)2Te)2(μ-O)(μ2-F2BF2)2]2+ (2) and [((p-MeO-C6H4)2Te)2(μ-O)(μ2-O2ClO2)2]2+ (3) stabilized via Te-(μ2-BF4/ClO4), with secondary interactions. The charge is balanced by the presence of two more anions, one above and another below the plane of the macrocycle. Similar reaction at higher temperatures leads to the formation of telluronium salts R3TeX [X = BF4- (4), ClO4- (5)] as a major product. The BF4- anion containing macrocycle and telluronium salt were monitored using 19F NMR. HRMS confirmed the structural stability of all the compounds in the solution state. The organotelluroxane macrocycle 2 has been found to act as an efficient electrocatalyst for proton reduction in an organic medium in the presence of p-toluene sulfonic acid as a protic source.

Chemistry 2023; 29:e202302139. [PMID: 37507838 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202302139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023]
Abstract
Dual chalcogen-bonding interactions is proposed as a novel means for the conformational control of urea derivatives. The formation of a chalcogen-bonding interaction at both sides of the urea carbonyl group was unambiguously confirmed by X-ray diffraction as well as computational studies including non-covalent interaction (NCI) plot index analysis, quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analysis, and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis via DFT calculations. By virtue of this dual interaction, urea derivatives that bear chalcogen atoms (X=S and Se) adopt a planar structure via the carbonyl oxygen (O) with an X⋅⋅⋅O⋅⋅⋅X arrangement on the same side of the molecule. The rigidity of the conformational lock was evaluated using the molecular arrangement in the crystal and the rotational barrier of benzochalcogenophene ring, which indicated a stronger conformational lock in benzoselenophene than in benzothiophene urea derivatives. Furthermore, the acidity of the urea derivatives increases according to the Lewis-acidic properties of the chalcogen-bonding interactions, whereby benzoselenophene urea is more acidic than benzothiophene urea. Tweezer-shaped urea derivatives were prepared, and their stereostructure proved the viability of the conformational control for defining the location of the substituents on the urea framework.

Abstract
The activation of the triple bond of alkynes was dominated by transition metals, while it is difficult for organocatalysts to play an effective role in this realm. Herein, we describe the activation of alkynes by chalcogen bonding, and the weak Se⋯π interaction was capable of catalyzing the intramolecular cyclization of 1,6-diynes, thus adding a new capability in the list of supramolecular catalysis.

Abstract
The activation of ethers by weak interactions is a long-standing objective in supramolecular catalysis, but yet it remains an underdeveloped topic. The obstacles towards solving this problem are prominent since it is difficult for a weak interaction to cleave a relatively strong C-O σ-bond and moreover, the ionic intermediate composing of an alkoxide ion and an electrophilic carbocation would deactivate weak interaction donors. Herein, we describe a distinctive activation mode, dual Se···π and Se···O bonding, that could activate benzylic as well as allylic ether C-O σ-bonds to achieve cyclization, coupling and elimination reactions. This dual Se···π and Se···O bonding catalysis approach could tolerate various alkoxide leaving groups, while the other representative weak interaction donors showed no catalytic activity.

Abstract
Chalcogen bonding (ChB) is the non-covalent interaction occurring between chalcogen atoms as Lewis acid sites and atoms or groups of atoms able to behave as Lewis bases through their lone pair or π electrons. Analogously to its sister halogen bonding, the high directionality of this interaction was implemented for precise structural organizations in the solid state and in solution. Regarding catalysis, ChB is now accepted as a new mode of activation as demonstrated by the increased number of examples in the last five years. In the family of ChB catalysts, those based on tellurium rapidly appeared to overcome their lighter sulfur and selenium counterparts. In this review, we highlight the Lewis acid properties of tellurium-based derivatives in solution and summarize the start-of-the-art of their applications in catalysis.

Abstract
A new approach towards highly enantioselective halogen-bonding catalysis has been developed. To circumvent the intrinsic issues of the nature of the halogen-bond (XB) and the resultant unresolved limitations in asymmetric catalysis, fine-tuned halogen-halogen interactions between the substrate and XB-donor were designed to preorganize the substrate in the catalyst's cavity and boost enantiocontrol. The present strategy exploits both the electron cloud (Lewis base site) and the sigma (σ)-hole site of the halogen substituent of the substrates to form a tight catalyst-substrate-counteranion chiral complex, thus enabling a controlled induction of high levels of chirality transfer. Remarkable enantioselectivities of up to 95 : 5 e.r. (90 % ee) have been achieved in a model dearomatization reaction of halogen-substituted (iso)quinolines with tetrakis-iodotriazole multidentate anion-binding catalysts.

Abstract
Density functional theory investigation of regium (Rg)-π bonding using the RgL-X model system, where Rg = Cu and Ag; L = CN, NO2, and OH; X = π-conjugated system (benzene, cyanobenzene, benzoic acid, pyridine, 2-methoxy aniline, 1,4-dimethoxy benzene, and cyclophane), has been performed. Conclusive evidence of the Rg-π bond has been provided by analysis of molecular electrostatic potential surfaces, Rg-π bond length, interaction energy (ΔE), second-order perturbation energy (E2), charge transfer (Δq), quantum theory of atom in molecules, and noncovalent interaction plots for 42 structural arrangements with varying ligands and the substituted aromatic ring. The Rg-π bond length in the optimized model systems varies from 2.03 to 2.12 Å in Cu complexes (1-21) and from 2.26 to 2.38 Å in Ag complexes (22-42) at the PBE0-D3 functional. While the ligand (L) attached to the Rg metal has a bargaining effect on the strength of the Rg-π bond (in the order of -OH > -CN = -NO2), the π-conjugated systems have a diminutive effect. Two X-ray crystal structures (CUCSOI and AHIDQU) having the Rg-π bond, accessed from Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC), are discussed here to signify the influence of Rg-π bonding on the crystal structure.

Abstract
Halogen bond catalysis, especially iodine derivatives catalysis, has attracted increasing attention in recent years owing to the advantages of relatively cheap, stable, green, easy to handle, and favorable catalytic activity. To obtain insights into the catalytic mechanism and activity of halogen bond donor catalysts, iodine(I)-based and iodine(III)-based halogen bond catalysis on the Friedel-Crafts reaction were investigated in this study. The entire reaction contains several key steps: carbon-carbon bond coupling, proton transfer, hydroxyl departure, indole addition, and deprotonation process. According to the energetic span model, iodine(III)-based donor catalysts exhibit higher catalytic activity than iodine(I)-based catalysts and double cationic catalysts are more potent than single cationic ones. For halogen bond catalysis, the Gibbs energy barriers have linear relation to the electron density at the halogen bond critical points. Furthermore, the Gibbs energy barriers are also linearly related to the integral charge values of the increased region of electron density outside the oxygen atom of reactants. Therefore, the stronger halogen bond results in lower Gibbs energy barrier, and the stronger polarization further benefits the halogen bond catalysis.

Abstract
A one-pot cascade reaction for 2,3-dihydropyridinone synthesis was accomplished with 3-fluoro-2-iodo-1-methylpyridinium triflate as the halogen bond catalyst. The desired [4+2] cycloaddition products, bearing aryl, heteroaryl, alkyl, and alicyclic substituents, were successfully furnished in 28-99% yields. Mechanistic investigations proved that a strong halogen-bonding interaction forged between the iodopyridinium catalyst and imine intermediate was essential to dynamically masking the vulnerable C-I bond on the catalyst and accelerating the following aza-Diels-Alder reaction.

Abstract
Catalytic asymmetric dearomatization of heteroaromatic compounds has received considerable attention in the last few years, since it allows for a fast expansion of the chemical space by converting relatively simple, flat molecules into complex, three dimensional structures with added value. Among different approaches, remarkable progress has been recently achieved by the development of organocatalytic dearomatization methods. In particular, the anion-binding catalysis technology has emerged as a potent alternative to metal catalysis, which together with the design of novel, tunable anion-receptor motifs, has provided new entries for the enantioselective dearomatization of heteroarenes through a chiral contact ion pair formation by activation of the electrophilic reaction partner. In this feature, we provide an overview of the different methodologies and advances in anion-binding catalyzed dearomatization reactions of different heteroarenes.

Abstract
In the chalcogen series, tellurium species exhibit the strongest chalcogen bonding (ChB) interaction with electron-rich atom. This property explains the renewed interested toward tellurium-based derivatives and their use in different applications, such as organocatalysis. In this context, the catalytic activity of telluronium salts in the Povarov reaction is presented herein. Different dienophiles, as well as imines of variable electronic nature, efficiently react in the presence of catalytic amount of either diarylmethyltelluronium or triaryltelluronium salts. Both catalysts could also readily perform the three-component Povarov reaction starting from aldehyde, aniline and dihydrofuran. The reactivity of telluroniums towards imines and aldehydes was confirmed in the solid state by the ability of Te atom to interact through ChB with the oxygen carbonyl of acetone, and in solution with significant shift variations of the imine proton and of the tellurium atom in 1 H and 125 Te NMR spectroscopy. For the most active telluronium catalysts bearing CF3 groups, association constants (K) with N-phenyl phenylmethanimine in the range 22-38 M-1 were measured in dichloromethane.

Abstract
ConspectusThe exploration of new catalysis concepts and strategies to drive chemical reactions is of vital importance for the sustainable development of organic synthesis. Recently, chalcogen bonding catalysis has emerged as a new concept for organic synthesis and has been demonstrated to be an important synthetic tool capable of addressing elusive reactivity and selectivity issues. This Account describes our progress in the research field of chalcogen bonding catalysis, including (1) the discovery of phosphonium chalcogenide (PCH) as highly efficient chalcogen bonding catalyst; (2) the development of "chalcogen-chalcogen bonding catalysis" and "chalcogen···π bonding catalysis" modes; (3) the demonstration that chalcogen bonding catalysis with PCH can activate hydrocarbons to achieve cyclization and coupling reactions of alkenes; (4) the discovery of unusual results that chalcogen bonding catalysis with PCH can solve elusive reactivity and selectivity issues that are inaccessible by classic catalysis approaches; and (5) the elucidation of chalcogen bonding mechanisms.With PCH catalysts, we systematically studied their chalcogen bonding properties, the relationship between structure and catalysis, and their application in facilitating a diverse array of reactions. Enabled by chalcogen-chalcogen bonding catalysis, an efficient assembly reaction of three molecules of β-ketoaldehyde and one indole derivative in a single operation was realized, delivering heterocycles with a newly constructed seven-membered ring. In addition, a Se···O bonding catalysis approach achieved an efficient synthesis of calix[4]pyrroles. We developed a "dual chalcogen bonding catalysis" strategy to solve reactivity and selectivity issues in the Rauhut-Currier-type reactions and related cascade cyclizations, thus shifting conventionally covalent Lewis base catalysis to a cooperative Se···O bonding catalysis approach. This strategy enables the cyanosilylation of ketones to take place in the presence of a ppm-level amount of PCH catalyst loading. Furthermore, we established chalcogen···π bonding catalysis for catalytic transformation of alkenes. In the research field of supramolecular catalysis, the activation of hydrocarbons such as alkenes by weak interactions is a highly interesting unresolved topic. We showed that the Se···π bonding catalysis approach could efficiently activate alkenes to achieve both coupling and cyclization reactions. Chalcogen···π bonding catalysis with PCH catalysts is particularly highlighted by the capability of facilitating strong Lewis-acid inaccessible transformations, such as the controlled cross coupling of triple alkenes. Overall, this Account presents a panoramic view of our research on chalcogen bonding catalysis with PCH catalysts. The works described in this Account provide a significant platform to solve synthetic problems.

Abstract
Iodine can be considered as the simplest halogen-bond donor. Previous investigations have revealed its remarkable catalytic effect in various reactions. The catalytic activity of iodine can often even compete with that of traditional Lewis acids. So far, iodine was typically used to activate carbonyl derivatives like Michael acceptors. We now demonstrate that iodine can also be used to activate allyl aryl ethers in Claisen rearrangements. The formed ortho-allylic phenols rapidly undergo iodocyclizations to afford dihydrobenzofurans, which are important building blocks for medicinal applications. A comparison with different catalysts further highlights the potential of iodine catalysis for this reaction. Computational and mechanistic investigations provide deeper insights into the underlying non-covalent interactions and their role for the catalysis.

Abstract
Computations indicate that cationic and noncharged xenon derivatives should exhibit higher catalytic activity than their iodine-based noncovalent organocatalytic congeners. Perfluorophenyl xenonium(II) is expected to demonstrate the best balance between catalytic activity and chemical stability for use in organocatalysis. Comparing its catalytic activity with that of isoelectronic perfluoroiodobenzene indicates that the high catalytic activity of cationic noncovalent organocatalysts is predominantly attributed to the electrostatic interactions with the reaction substrates, which cause the polarization of ligated species during the reaction progress. In contrast, the electron transfer and covalent contributions to the bonding between the catalyst and substrate have negligible effects. The dominant effect of electrostatic interactions results in a strong negative correlation between the calculated Gibbs free energies of activation for the modeled reactions and the highest potentials of the σ-holes on the central atoms of the catalysts. No such correlation is observed for noncharged catalysts.

Abstract
A chalcogen atom Y contains two separate σ-holes when in a R1 YR2 molecular bonding pattern. Quantum chemical calculations consider competition between these two σ-holes to engage in a chalcogen bond (ChB) with a NH3 base. R groups considered include F, Br, I, and tert-butyl (tBu). Also examined is the situation where the Y lies within a chalcogenazole ring, where its neighbors are C and N. Both electron-withdrawing substituents R1 and R2 act cooperatively to deepen the two σ-holes, but the deeper of the two holes consistently lies opposite to the more electron-withdrawing group, and is also favored to form a stronger ChB. The formation of two simultaneous ChBs in a triad requires the Y atom to act as double electron acceptor, and so anti-cooperativity weakens each bond relative to the simple dyad. This effect is such that some of the shallower σ-holes are unable to form a ChB at all when a base occupies the other site.

Abstract
The application of chalcogenonium salts in organic synthesis has grown enormously in the past decades since the discovery of the methyltransferase enzyme cofactor S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM), featuring a sulfonium center as the reactive functional group. Chalcogenonium salts can be employed as alkylating agents, sources of ylides and carbon-centered radicals, partners for metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions and organocatalysts. Herein, we will focus the discussion on heavier chalcogenonium salts (selenonium and telluronium), presenting their utility in synthetic organic transformations and, whenever possible, drawing comparisons in terms of reactivity and selectivity with the respective sulfonium analogues.

Abstract
Cyclic diaryliodonium compounds like iodolium derivatives have increasingly found use as noncovalent Lewis acids in the last years. They are more stable toward nucleophilic substitution than acyclic systems and are markedly more Lewis acidic. Herein, this higher Lewis acidity is analyzed and explained via quantum-chemical calculations and energy decomposition analyses. Its key origin is the change in energy levels and hybridization of iodine's orbitals, leading to both more favorable electrostatic interaction and better charge transfer. Both of the latter seem to contribute in similar fashion, while hydrogen bonding as well as steric repulsion with the phenyl rings play at best a minor role. In comparison to iodolium, bromolium and chlorolium are less Lewis acidic the lighter the halogen, which is predominantly based on less favorable charge-transfer interactions.

Abstract
Asymmetric organocatalysis has experienced a long and spectacular way since the early reports over a century ago by von Liebig, Knoevenagel and Bredig, showing that small (chiral) organic molecules can catalyze (asymmetric) reactions. This was followed by impressive first highly enantioselective reports in the second half of the last century, until the hype initiated in 2000 by the milestone publications of MacMillan and List, which finally culminated in the 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This short Perspective aims at providing a brief introduction to the field by first looking on the historical development and the more classical methods and concepts, followed by discussing selected advanced recent examples that opened new directions and diversity within this still growing field.

Abstract
High value oxygenated polycycles have been rapidly and efficiently accessed from simple precursors in one pot processes. The reported methodology relies on a new and mild method for butenolide synthesis mediated by thiols. The initial photooxygenation and butenolide synthesis have been merged with subsequent photoredox reactions to achieve rare dual-photocatalyst cascades affording various fused butyrolactones. Ground state Lewis acid activity for methylene blue has been unveiled and then exploited in the synthesis of substituted cyclopentanones.

Abstract
A complex is assembled which pairs a carboxyl group of X1COOH with a 1,2,5-chalcogenadiazole ring containing substituents on its C atoms. The OH of the carboxyl group donates a proton to a N atom of the ring to form a OH⋯N H-bond (HB), while its carbonyl O engages in a Y⋯O chalcogen bond (ChB) with the ring in which Y = S, Se, Te. The ChB is strengthened by enlarging the size of the Y atom from S to Se to Te. Placement of an electron-withdrawing group (EWG) X1 on the acid strengthens the HB while weakening the ChB; the reverse occurs when EWGs are placed on the ring. By selection of the proper substituents on the two units, it is possible to achieve a near perfect balance between the strengths of these two bonds. These bond strengths are also reflected in the NMR spectroscopic properties of the chemical shielding of the various atoms and the coupling between the nuclei directly involved in each bond.

Abstract
With the continuous development of halogen bonds, halogen bond donors have been used as clean and efficient catalysts in organic reactions. In this work, with inorganic halides (I2, IBr, ICl, and ICl3) as catalysts and the iso-Nazarov cyclization as the benchmark reaction, we aim at investigating the role of the halogen bond in the catalytic mechanism. The halogen bond catalyzed iso-Nazarov cyclization reaction involves three steps: carbon-carbon coupling process, [1,2]-H shift process, and [1,4]-H shift process. The halogen-bonding interaction promotes the charge accumulation of the oxygen atom in the carbonyl group and decreases the activation energy of the reaction. The catalytic activity of the halogen bond donor is enhanced in the order of I2 < IBr < ICl < ICl3, and it could be predicted that the partial covalent interaction of the I⋯O halogen bond between the catalyst ICl3 and the oxygen atom of the reactant may exhibit good catalytic activity in the experiments. In the [1,4]-H shift process, the two-step hydrogen bond/halogen bond co-catalyzed mechanism exhibits the lowest reaction energy barrier than the one-step water co-catalyzed proton transfer mechanism and the direct one.

Abstract
The σ-hole interaction represents a noncovalent interaction between atoms with σ-hole(s) on their surface (such as halogens and chalcogens) and negative sites. Over the last decade, significant developments have emerged in applications where the σ-hole interaction was demonstrated to play a key role in the control over chirality. The aim of this review is to give a comprehensive overview of the current advancements in the use of σ-hole interactions in stereoselective processes, such as formation of chiral supramolecular assemblies, separation of enantiomers, enantioselective complexation and asymmetric catalysis.

Abstract
Sulfonium and selenonium salts, represented by S-aryl dibenzothiophenium and Se-aryl dibenzoselenophenium triflates, were found to exhibit remarkable catalytic activity in the model Groebke-Blackburn-Bienaymé reaction. Kinetic analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicated that their catalytic effect is induced by the ligation of the reaction substrates to the σ-holes on the S or Se atom of the cations. The experimental data indicated that although 10-fold excess of the chloride totally inhibits the catalytic activity of the sulfonium salts, the selenonium salt remains catalytically active, which can be explained by the experimentally found lower binding constant of the selenonium derivative to chloride in comparison with the sulfonium analogue. Both types of salts exhibit lower catalytic activity in the model reaction than dibenziodolium species.

Abstract
The activation of aziridines typically involves the use of strong Lewis acids or transition metals, and methods relying on weak interactions are rare. Herein, we report that cooperative chalcogen bonding interactions in confined sites can activate sulfonyl-protected aziridines. Among the several possible distinct bonding modes, our experiments and computational studies suggest that an activation mode involving the cooperative Se···O and Se···N interactions is in operation. The catalytic reactions between weakly bonded supramolecular species and nonactivated alkenes are considered as unfavorable approaches. However, here we show that the activation of aziridines by cooperative Se···O and Se···N interactions enables the cycloaddition of weakly bonded aziridine-selenide complex with nonactivated alkenes in a catalytic manner. Thus, weak interactions can indeed enable these transformations and are an alternative to methods relying on strong Lewis acids. The activation of aziridines is typically achieved via reaction with strong Lewis acids or transition metals. Here, the authors report that cooperative Se ∙ ∙∙O and Se ∙ ∙∙N noncovalent interactions can activate sulfonyl-protected aziridines, which enables their use in cycloaddition reactions with nonactivated alkenes.

Abstract
Chalcogen bonding (ChB) has emerged as a promising tool in organic synthesis. However, compared with the well-developed selenium- and tellurium-based salt catalysts, the ChB catalysis of sulfonium salts is still unknown. Here, we report a new type of alkynyl-sulfonium salt ChB catalysis for various ionic transformations, including transfer hydrogenation, bromination, bromolactonization, dimerization of 1,1-diphenylethylene, nitro-Michael addition reaction and Ritter reaction. More importantly, the photocapability of ChB was first demonstrated to generate alkynyl radicals for the synthesis of a variety of chalcogenoacetylenes. Mechanistic studies shed light on the mechanism of the photoinduced reactions and confirmed the involvement of alkynyl radicals which are difficult to generate otherwise.
