Abstract
We describe here a Ni-catalyzed Negishi coupling reaction to prepare 1,2-dialkyl enol ethers in a stereoconvergent fashion. This method employs readily available and bench-stable α-oxy-vinylsulfones as electrophiles. The C-sulfone bond in the α-oxy-vinylsulfone motif is cleaved chemoselectively in these reactions. The mild conditions are tolerant of a variety of functional groups on both partners, thus representing a general strategy for enol ether synthesis. This unique reactivity of α-oxy-vinylsulfones indicates their further application as electrophilic partners in cross-coupling reactions.

Abstract
Plants belonging to the genus Hypericum (Hypericaceae) are recognized as an abundant source of natural products with interesting chemical structures and intriguing biological activities. In the course of our continuing study on constituents of Hypericum plants, aiming at searching natural product-based lead compounds for therapeutic agents, we have isolated more than 100 new characteristic metabolites classified as prenylated acylphloroglucinols, meroterpenes, ketides, dibenzo-1,4-dioxane derivatives, and xanthones including prenylated xanthones, phenylxanthones, and xanthonolignoids from 11 Hypericum plants and one Triadenum plant collected in Japan, China, and Uzbekistan or cultivated in Japan. This review summarizes their chemical structures and biological activities.

Abstract
The steric and electronic drivers of regioselectivity in platinum-catalyzed intramolecular hydroalkoxylation are elucidated. A branch point is found that divides the process between 5-exo and 6-endo selective processes, and enol ethers can be accessed in good yields for both oxygen heterocycles. The main influence arises from an electronic effect, where the alkyne substituent induces a polarization of the alkyne that leads to preferential heteroatom attack at the more electron-deficient carbon. The electronic effects are studied in other contexts, including hydroacyloxylation and hydroamination, and similar trends in directionality are predominant although not uniformly observed.

Abstract
Six new prenylated acylphloroglucinols with menthane moieties, hypascyrins A-E (1-5) and ent-hyphenrone J (6), together with four known analogues, were isolated from Hypericum ascyron roots. Detailed spectroscopic data analyses resulted in the assignment of their structures. The absolute configuration of 1 was deduced by experimental and calculated ECD data, while those of 2-6 were assigned by ECD data analyses as well as chemical conversions. Hypascyrins A (1), C (3), and E (5) and ent-hyphenrone J (6) exhibited antimicrobial activity against MRSA (MIC50 values of 4.0, 8.0, 2.0, and 4.0 μM, respectively) and Bacillus subtilis (MIC values of 4.0, 4.0, 2.0, and 4.0 μM, respectively).

Abstract
Two new dibenzo-1,4-dioxane derivatives, hyperdioxanes A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the roots of a Hypericaceous plant, Hypericum ascyron. Hyperdioxane A (1) is a conjugate of dibenzo-1,4-dioxane and sesquiterpene with an unprecedented heptacyclic ring system. The structures of 1 and 2 were assigned by detailed spectroscopic analyses, including application of a modified Mosher's method. A possible biogenetic pathway of hyperdioxane A (1) from hyperdioxane B (2) and a sesquiterpene, eremophil-9,11(13)-dien-8β,12-olide (3), is presented.
