Abstract
Electrophilic addition of alkenes is a textbook reaction that plays a pivotal role in organic chemistry. In the past decades, catalytic asymmetric variants of this important type of reaction have witnessed great achievements by the development of novel catalytic systems. However, enantioselective aza-electrophilic additions of unactivated alkenes, which could provide a transformative strategy for the preparation of synthetically significant nitrogen-containing compounds, still remain a formidable challenge. Herein, we have developed unprecedented Au(I)/NHC-catalyzed asymmetric aza-electrophilic additions of unactivated 1,1-disubstituted styrenes by the utilization of readily available dialkyl azodicarboxylates as electrophilic nitrogen sources. Based on this approach, a series of transformations, including [2 + 2] cycloaddition, intermolecular 1,2-oxyamination, and several types of intramolecular hydrazination-induced cyclizations, have been realized. These transformations provide a previously unattainable platform for the divergent synthesis of hydrazine derivatives, which could also be converted to other nitrogen-containing chiral synthons. Experimental and computational studies support the idea that carbocation intermediates are involved in reaction pathways.

Abstract
Using sulfur-containing nucleophiles in halocyclization has been underexplored notwithstanding their potential to generate novel S-heterocycles and despite the extensive exploration of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon nucleophiles. In this study, we focused on the bromocyclization of alkenoic thioesters with N-bromoacetamide, which leads to the formation of cyclic bromosulfides. Investigation into the mechanistic pathways of these reactions revealed that the sulfur atom behaves as a nucleophile, leading to S-acetylsulfonium intermediates. HBr and Br2 played significant roles in these transformations.

Abstract
The halolactonization reaction provides rapid access to densely functionalized lactones from unsaturated carboxylic acids. The endo/exo regioselectivity of this cyclization reaction is primarily determined by the electronic stabilization of alkene substituents, thus making it inherently dependent on substrate structures. Therefore this method often affords one type of halolactone regioisomer only. Herein, we introduce a simple and efficient method for regioselectivity-switchable bromolactonization reactions mediated by HFIP solvent. Two sets of reaction conditions were developed, each forming endo-products or exo-products in excellent regioselectivity. A combination of computational and experimental mechanistic studies not only confirmed the crucial role of HFIP, but also revealed the formation of endo-products under kinetic control and exo-products under thermodynamic control. This study paves the way for future work on the use of perfluorinated solvents to dictate reaction outcomes in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Enantioselective difunctionalization of alkenes offers a straightforward means for the rapid construction of enantioenriched complex molecules. Despite the tremendous efforts devoted to this field, enantioselective aminative difunctionalization remains a challenge, particularly through an electrophilic addition fashion. Herein, we report an unprecedented approach for the enantioselective aminative difunctionalization of alkenes via copper-catalyzed electrophilic addition with external azo compounds as nitrogen sources. A series of valuable cyclic hydrazine derivatives via either [3 + 2] cycloaddition or intramolecular cyclization have been achieved in high chemo-, regio-, enantio-, and diastereoselectivities. In this transformation, a wide range of functional groups, such as carboxylic acid, hydroxy, amide, sulfonamide, and aryl groups, could serve as nucleophiles. Importantly, a new cyano oxazoline chiral ligand was found to play a crucial role in the control of enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Although oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon have been extensively studied as nucleophilic elements in the halocyclization of alkenes, sulfur-based nucleophiles are relatively unexplored. Herein, we investigated bromocyclization chemistry involving unsaturated thioesters, with a focus on their use as potential S-nucleophiles. We developed a bromocyclization method that uses alkenoic thioesters and N-bromoacetamide (NBA) to form cyclic bromosulfides. The resulting 5-exo products are labile and can be used in various nucleophilic substitution reactions.

Abstract
An unprecedented decomposition of unprotected alkynyl hydrazones is attempted that has provided allenoates, tetrasubstituted α,γ-dihaloallenoates, and functionalized tricyclic azepines. A reaction of alkynyl hydrazones with N-halosuccinimides captures the electrophile in 2-fold that delivers fully substituted dibromo- and diiodoallenoates in good yields. In addition, a DABCO-promoted Wolff-Kishner reduction of hydrazones, followed by isomerization, provides versatile allenoates under mild conditions. In contrast, a similar decomposition with ambiphilic DBU furnishes a completely different tricyclic azepine scaffold in excellent yield and diastereoselectivity.

Abstract
A novel dearomative spirolactonization/polyhalogenation of phenols that employs hypervalent iodine PhICl2 (iodobenzene dichloride) as both an oxidant and chlorine source with an indispensable base, or only using NBS (N-bromosuccinimide) without any additives, is presented. Halide participations are a vital factor in the cascade reaction of 3'-hydroxy-[1,1'-biphenyl]-2-carboxylic acids with good selectivities and reactivities and induced the rapid constructions of multiple C-halogen bonds and directional C═O bonds in a one-step operation under mild conditions. In gaining a good understanding of the mechanism, the increase in number of bromine atoms was inferred rationally from the spirolactonization process, assisted by DFT calculations and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the formation of a stable carbocation intermediate plays a great role in the migration of oxygen to spirolactonization.

Abstract
Asymmetric electrophilic reactions provide an ideal method for the construction of chiral molecules by incorporating one or more functional groups into the parent substrates under mild conditions. However, due to the issues of the reactivities of electrophilic species and the possible racemization of chiral intermediates as well as the restriction of the chiral scaffolds of chiral catalysts, many limitations remain in this field, such as the narrow scopes of substrates and electrophiles as well as the limited types of nucleophiles and reactions. To overcome the limitations in the synthesis of diversified chiral molecules, we developed a series of indane-based chiral amino aryl chalcogenide catalysts. These catalysts are easily prepared based on the privileged chiral indane scaffold. They can provide an appropriate H-bonding effect by varying the amino protecting groups as well as offer a proper Lewis basicity and steric hindrance by adjusting different substituents on the aryl chalcogenide motifs. These features allow for them to meet the requirements of reactivity and the chiral environment of the reactions. Notably, they have been successfully applied to various asymmetric electrophilic reactions of alkenes, alkynes, and arenes, expanding the field of electrophilic reactions.Using these catalysts, we realized the enantioselective CF3S-lactonization of olefinic carboxylic acids, enantioselective CF3S-aminocyclization of olefinic sulfonamides, desymmetrizing enantioselective CF3S-carbocyclization of gem-diaryl-tethered alkenes, enantioselective CF3S-oxycyclization of N-allylamides, enantioselective intermolecular trifluoromethylthiolating difunctionalization and allylic C-H trifluoromethylthiolation of trisubstituted alkenes, formally the intermolecular CF3S-oxyfunctionalization of aliphatic internal alkenes, intermolecular azidothiolation, oxythiolation, thioarylation of N-allyl sulfonamides, desymmetrizing enantioselective chlorocarbocyclization of aryl-tethered diolefins, enantioselective Friedel-Crafts-type electrophilic chlorination of N-allyl anilides, and enantioselective chlorocarbocyclization and dearomatization of N-allyl 1-naphthanilides. Additionally, the enantioselective electrophilic carbothiolation of alkynes to construct enantiopure carbon chirality center-containing molecules and axially chiral amino sulfide vinyl arenes and the electrophilic aromatic halogenation to produce P-chirogenic compounds can be accomplished. In these reactions, a bifunctional binding mode is proposed in the catalytic cycles, in which an acid-derived anion-binding interaction might exist and account for the high enantioselectivities of the reactions.In this Account, we demonstrate our achievements in asymmetric electrophilic reactions and share our thoughts on catalyst design, our understanding of asymmetric electrophilic reactions, and our perspectives in the field of chiral chalcogenide-catalyzed asymmetric electrophilic reactions. We hope that the experience we share will promote the design and development of other novel organocatalysts and new challenging reactions.

Abstract
An asymmetric synthesis of 5-halomethyl pyrazolines and isoxazolines which bear a tertiary stereocenter by catalytic halocyclization of β,γ-unsaturated hydrazones and ketoximes is described. By using Brønsted acids of anionic chiral Co(III) complexes as catalysts, a variety of chiral 5-halomethyl pyrazolines and isoxazolines were obtained in good yields with high enantioselectivities (up to 99% yield, 97:3 er). Preliminary bioassay results indicated that several isoxazoline derivatives exhibited significant antifungal activities.

Abstract
Electronically unbiased arylcyclopropane functionalization has always been a challenge to organic chemists, and the emergence of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) has not only vehemently overshadowed them but still dominates the cyclopropane chemistry. Unlike DACs, the absence of pre-installed functional groups makes it harder for them to activate and participate in a reaction. The field has witnessed considerably slow progress since its inception due to the inherent challenges. There are only a few strategies available to open arylcyclopropanes. Therefore, this work is still in its infancy stage in spite of these materials being one of the earliest known type of cyclopropanes. This review manifests the history, endeavors, and achievements alongside the associated challenges, opportunities, and the need for concerted efforts to accomplish the long-awaited golden age of arylcyclopropanes.

Abstract
Asymmetric halolactonizations are powerful methods for the syntheses of chiral lactones. Catalytic and highly enantioselective halolactonizations of α-allyl carboxylic acids, however, continue to present a formidable challenge. Herein, we report the chiral bifunctional sulfide-catalyzed desymmetrizing bromolactonizations of α,α-diallyl carboxylic acids. These reactions efficiently produced chiral α-quaternary lactones and esters.

Abstract
In organic synthesis, due to their high electrophilicity and leaving group properties, halogens play pivotal roles in the activation and structural derivations of organic compounds. Recently, cyclizations induced by halogen groups that allow the production of diverse targets and the structural reorganization of organic molecules have attracted significant attention from synthetic chemists. Electrophilic halogen atoms activate unsaturated and saturated hydrocarbon moieties by generating halonium intermediates, followed by the attack of carbon-containing, nitrogen-containing, oxygen-containing, and sulfur-containing nucleophiles to give highly functionalized carbocycles and heterocycles. New transformations of halogenated organic molecules that can control the formation and stereoselectivity of the products, according to the difference in the size and number of halogen atoms, have recently been discovered. These unique cyclizations may possibly be used as efficient synthetic strategies with future advances. In this review, innovative reactions controlled by halogen groups are discussed as a new concept in the field of organic synthesis.

Thio- and halodifluoromethylated compounds are an important class of compounds in medicinal chemistry and organic synthesis. Herein, we report a facile method for the construction of these compounds via chalcogenide-catalyzed intermolecular electrophilic thio- and halofunctionalization of gem-difluoroalkenes. Simple treatment of gem-difluoroalkenes with electrophilic sulfur/halogen reagents and various O- or N-nucleophiles affords diverse multifunctionalized thio- and halodifluoromethylated compounds. This reaction features a relatively broad substrate scope, good functional group tolerance, and mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
Alkoxyamide has been reported as a catalyst for the activation of N-bromosuccinimide to perform bromocyclization and bromination of a wide range of substrates in a lipophilic solvent, where adequate suppression of the background reactions was observed. The key feature of the active site is the alkoxy group attached to the sulfonamide moiety, which facilitates the acceptance as well as the delivery of bromonium species from the bromine source to the substrates.

Abstract
A BINOL-derived chiral bifunctional sulfide catalyst bearing a phenylurea moiety was applied to enantioselective bromoaminocyclization reactions of 2-allylaniline derivatives, which provide optically active 2-substituted indoline products as important motifs for biologically active compounds. A protecting group on the nitrogen of the 2-allylaniline substrate was carefully optimized, and highly enantioselective reactions were achieved by employing the p-biphenylsulfonyl-protected substrates. The origin of the good level of enantioselectivity for the present bromoaminocyclization was also investigated on the basis of DFT calculations. The resultant optically active 2-(bromomethyl)indoline products could be transformed to various 2-substituted indolines with no loss of the optical purity.

Abstract
A method for the catalytic, enantioselective, intramolecular 1,2-sulfenoamidation of alkenes is described. Lewis base activation of a suitable sulfur electrophile generates an enantioenriched, thiiranium ion intermediate from a β,γ-unsaturated sulfonyl carboxamide. This intermediate is subsequently intercepted by the sulfonamide nitrogen resulting in cyclization to form γ-lactams. Electron-poor alkenes required the use of a new selenophosphoramidate Lewis base catalyst. Subsequent manipulations of the products harness the latent reactivity of both the amide and thioether functionality.

Abstract
The use of a new class of unsymmetrical cinchona-alkaloid-based, phthalazine-bridged organocatalysts enabled the highly enantioselective dichlorination of unfunctionalized alkenes. In combination with the electrophilic chlorinating agent 1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DCDMH) and triethylsilyl chloride (TES-Cl) as the source of nucleophilic chloride, 1-aryl-2-alkyl alkenes were dichlorinated with enantioselectivities of up to 94:6 er. Initial mechanistic investigations suggest that no free chlorine is formed, and by replacement of the chloride by fluoride, enantioselective chlorofluorinations of alkenes are possible.

Abstract
A concise and selective synthesis of the dichlorinated meroterpenoid azamerone is described. The paucity of tactics for the synthesis of natural-product-relevant chiral organochlorides motivated the development of unique strategies for accessing these motifs in enantioenriched forms. The route features a novel enantioselective chloroetherification reaction, a Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling between a quinone diazide and a boronic hemiester, and a late-stage tetrazine [4+2]-cycloaddition/oxidation cascade.

Abstract
Herein we report a highly regio- and stereoselective haloazidation of allylic alcohols. This enantioselective reaction uses readily available materials and can be performed on a variety of alkyl-substituted alkenes and can incorporate either bromine or chlorine as the electrophilic halogen component. Both halide and azido groups of the resulting products can be transformed into valuable building blocks with complete stereospecificity. The first example of an enantioselective 1,4-haloazidation of a conjugated diene is reported as well as its application to a concise synthesis of an aza-sugar.

Abstract
Although a wide variety of chiral organocatalysts have been developed for asymmetric transformations, effective chiral dialkyl sulfide organocatalysts remain relatively rare and under-developed, despite the potential utility of dialkyl sulfide catalysts. Herein, we report the development of chiral bifunctional dialkyl sulfide catalysts possessing a urea moiety for regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective bromolactonization. The importance of the bifunctional design of chiral sulfide catalysts was clearly demonstrated in the present work. The roles of both the sulfide and urea moieties of the catalyst were clarified based on the results of experimental and theoretical investigation.

Abstract
The development of catalytic, enantioselective halofunctionalizations of unactivated alkenes has made significant progress in recent years. However, the identification of generally applicable catalysts for wide range of substrates has yet to be realized. A detailed understanding of the reaction mechanism is essential to guide the formulation of a truly general catalyst. Herein, we present our investigations on the enantiodetermining step of a Lewis base catalyzed bromocycloetherification that provides important insights and design criteria.

Abstract
A general protocol is described for inducing enantioselective halolactonizations of unsaturated carboxylic acids using novel bifunctional organic catalysts derived from a chiral binaphthalene scaffold. Bromo- and iodolactonization reactions of diversely substituted, unsaturated carboxylic acids proceed with high degrees of enantioselectivity, regioselectivity, and diastereoselectivity. Notably, these BINOL-derived catalysts are the first to induce the bromo- and iodolactonizations of 5-alkyl-4( Z)-olefinic acids via 5- exo mode cyclizations to give lactones in which new carbon-halogen bonds are created at a stereogenic center with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities. Iodolactonizations of 6-substituted-5( Z)-olefinic acids also occur via 6- exo cyclizations to provide δ-lactones with excellent enantioselectivities. Several notable applications of this halolactonization methodology were developed for desymmetrization, kinetic resolution, and epoxidation of Z-alkenes. The utility of these reactions is demonstrated by their application to a synthesis of precursors of the F-ring subunit of kibdelone C and to the shortest catalytic, enantioselective synthesis of (+)-disparlure reported to date.
