Abstract
An efficient RuPHOX-Ru catalyzed asymmetric cascade hydrogenation of 3-substituted chromones has been achieved under mild reaction conditions, affording the corresponding chiral 3-substituted chromanols in high yields with excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivities (up to 99 % yield, >99 % ee and >20 : 1 dr). Control reactions and deuterium labelling experiments revealed that a dynamic kinetic resolution process occurs during the subsequent hydrogenation of the C=O double bond, which is responsible for the high performance of the asymmetric cascade hydrogenation. The resulting products allow for several transformations and it was shown that the protocol provides a practical and alternative strategy for the synthesis of chiral 3-substituted chromanols and their derivatives.

Abstract
Asymmetric sequential hydrogenations of α-methylene γ- or δ-keto carboxylic acids are established in one-pot using a bimetallic Ru/Ru catalyst system, achieving the stereodivergent synthesis of all four stereoisomers of both chiral γ- and δ-lactones with two non-vicinal carbon stereocenters in high yields (up to 99%) and with excellent stereoselectivities (up to >99% ee and >20:1 dr). The compatibility of the two chiral Ru catalyst systems is investigated in detail, and it is found that the basicity of the reaction system plays a key role in the sequential hydrogenation processes. The protocol can be performed on a gram-scale with a low catalyst loading (up to 11000 S/C) and the resulting products allow for many transformations, particularly for the synthesis of several key intermediates useful for the preparation of chiral drugs and natural products.

Abstract
A conceptual strategy for a formal α-alkylation of α-methylene ketones was developed. Diverse 1° and 2° alkyl substituents were generated in the α-position of various ketones via synthesis of enaminone (step 1) and treatment with organomagnesium (step 2) with subsequent catalytic hydrogenation (step 3, 1° alkyl) or organocopper reagents (step 4, 2° alkyl). Tolerance toward ester, Boc-protected amine, and α-fluoro-substituted ketone moieties was demonstrated. The suitability of the method for late-stage natural product modification was shown.

Abstract
Highly strained methylenecyclobutanes (MCBs) are intriguing scaffolds in synthetic chemistry and drug discovery, but there is no such strategy that enables the synthesis of structurally diverse MCBs with defined stereochemistry. We report a general synthetic strategy for (boromethylene)cyclobutanes (BMCBs) and spiro-BMCBs by a challenging Cu-catalyzed highly chemo-, stereo-, and regioselective borylative cyclization of aliphatic alkynes. This strategy not only enables the installation of various functionalities at each site on the MCB skeleton with unambiguous stereochemistry but also introduces a versatile boromethylene unit that is readily transformable to a wide range of new functional groups; these features significantly expand the structural diversity of MCBs and are particularly valuable in drug discovery. The concise and divergent total syntheses of four cyclobutane-containing natural products were achieved from one common BMCB obtained by this strategy. The origin of the high regioselectivity in the borylcupration of alkynes and the high efficiency of the strained ring cyclization was also studied.

Abstract
![]()
Asymmetric hydrogenation
of prochiral substrates such as ketones
and olefins constitutes an important instrument for the construction
of stereogenic centers, and a multitude of catalytic systems have
been developed for this purpose. However, due to the different nature
of the π-system, the hydrogenation of olefins and ketones is
normally catalyzed by different metal complexes. Herein, a study on
the effect of additives on the Ir-N,P-catalyzed hydrogenation of enones
is described. The combination of benzamide and the development of
a reactive catalyst unlocked a novel reactivity mode of Crabtree-type
complexes toward C=O bond hydrogenation. The role of benzamide
is suggested to extend the lifetime of the dihydridic iridium intermediate,
which is prone to undergo irreversible trimerization, deactivating
the catalyst. This unique reactivity is then coupled with C=C
bond hydrogenation for the facile installation of two contiguous stereogenic
centers in high yield and stereoselectivity (up to 99% ee, 99/1 d.r.) resulting in a highly stereoselective reduction of enones.

C and CO bonds of the enones were hydrogenated sequentially, and the final stereoselectivities were determined by the dynamic kinetic resolution of ketones. Moreover, DFT calculations revealed that an outer sphere pathway was involved in both reduction of CC and CO bonds of enones. The synthetic utility of this method was demonstrated by a gram-scale reaction with very low catalyst loading (S/C = 20 000) and a concise synthetic route to key chiral intermediates of the antiasthmatic drug CP-199,330. A general and efficient method for asymmetric sequential hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated ketones has been developed. A dynamic kinetic resolution and an outer sphere pathway were involved in this transformation.![]()

Abstract
A hypervalent iodine(III)-mediated ring-contractive fluorination reaction of 2-alkylidenecyclobutanol derivatives is presented. The protocol allows the facile synthesis of β-monofluorinated cyclopropanecarbaldehydes via a fluorination/semipinacol rearrangement cascade using nucleophilic Py·HF as the fluorine source. For challenging electron-rich arene substrates, the installation of a protecting group on the free alcohol is pivotal for maintaining the reaction efficiency. The synthetic utility was demonstrated by the scalability of this reaction and further transformations of the products.

Abstract
An iridium catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of racemic exocyclic γ,δ-unsaturated β-ketoesters via dynamic kinetic resolution to functionalized chiral allylic alcohols was developed. With the chiral spiro iridium catalysts Ir-SpiroPAP, a series of racemic exocyclic γ,δ-unsaturated β-ketoesters bearing a five-, six-, or seven-membered ring were hydrogenated to the corresponding functionalized chiral allylic alcohols in high yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities (87 to >99% ee) and cis-selectivities (93 : 7 to >99 : 1). The origin of the excellent stereoselectivity was also rationalized by density functional theory calculations. Furthermore, this protocol could be performed on gram scale and at a lower catalyst loading (0.002 mol%) without the loss of reactivity and enantioselectivity, and has been successfully applied in the enantioselective synthesis of chiral carbocyclic δ-amino esters and the β-galactosidase inhibitor isogalactofagomine.

Abstract
A highly efficient catalytic system based on the cheap transition metal nickel for the asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging cyclic alkenyl sulfones, 3-substituted benzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxides, was first successfully developed. A series of hydrogenation products, chiral 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxides, were obtained in high yields (95-99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (90-99% ee). According to the results of nonlinear effect studies, deuterium-labeling experiments, and DFT calculation investigations, a reasonable catalytic mechanism for this nickel-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation was provided, which displayed that the two added hydrogen atoms of the hydrogenation products could be from H2 through the insertion of Ni-H and subsequent hydrogenolysis.

Abstract
The desymmetrization of meso-dicarbonatecyclohexene with β-hydrazino carboxylic esters has been achieved via a RuPHOX/Pd-catalyzed allylic substitution cascade for the construction of chiral hexahydrocinnoline derivatives with high performance. Mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction exploits a pathway different from that of our previous work and that the first nitrogen nucleophilic process is the rate-determining step. The protocol could be conducted on a gram scale without any loss of catalytic behavior, and the corresponding chiral hexahydrocinnolines can undergo diverse transformations.

Abstract
The asymmetric hydrogenation of 2,4-pentadien-1-ones has been achieved by using trans-RuCl2[(R)-XylylSunPhos][(R)-Daipen] as a catalyst under basic conditions. This hydrogenation demonstrated exclusive C1-carbonyl selectivity, and thus the conjugated 2,4-diene motifs remained untouched, which provides a synthetically useful method for various chiral 2,4-pentadien-1-ols.
