Abstract
An enantioselective synthesis of skipped dienes has been developed based on an iridium-catalyzed allylic alkylation of phosphonates and Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination. This two-step protocol uses easily accessible substrates and delivers C2-substituted skipped dienes bearing a C3 stereogenic center, generally with outstanding enantioselectivities (up to 99.5:0.5 er). This is the first catalytic enantioselective allylic alkylation of phosphonates, and the overall process represents a formal enantioselective α-C(sp2)-H allylic alkylation of α,β-unsaturated carbonyls and acrylonitrile.

Abstract
Hydroxy-directed iridium-catalyzed enantioselective formal β-C(sp2)-H allylic alkylation of kojic acid and structurally related α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds is developed. This reaction, catalyzed by an Ir(i)/(P,olefin) complex, utilizes the nucleophilic character of α-hydroxy α,β-unsaturated carbonyls, to introduce an allyl group at its β-position in a branched-selective manner in good to excellent yield with uniformly high enantioselectivity (up to >99.9 : 0.1 er). To the best of our knowledge, this report represents the first example of the use of kojic acid in a transition metal catalyzed highly enantioselective transformation.

Abstract
Medium-sized rings are important structural units, but their synthesis, especially in a highly enantioselective manner, has been a great challenge. Herein we report an enantioselective synthesis of medium-sized-ring lactones by an iridium-catalyzed Z-retentive asymmetric allylic substitution reaction. The reaction features mild conditions and a broad substrate scope. Various eight- to 11-membered-ring lactones can be afforded in moderate to excellent yields (up to 88%) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). The utilization of both Z-allyl precursors and an Ir catalyst is critical for the medium-sized-ring formation.

Abstract
Herein, we describe the enantioselective C(sp3)-H bond functionalizations of 2-alkyl azaarenes using a cooperative dual Lewis acid catalysis. An achiral Lewis acid activates the unactivated azaarene partner without the need for a strong base. Orthogonally, a chiral-at-metal Lewis acid catalyst enables LUMO lowering and induces chirality. This method tolerates a range of complex molecular scaffolds and exhibits good to excellent yields and selectivity while accepting a wide variety of functional groups.

Abstract
Compared with the ever-growing list of nonprochiral nucleophiles in Ir-catalyzed asymmetric allylic substitution reactions, prochiral nucleophiles are less studied. We present a new prochiral nucleophile, namely, deconjugated butyrolactam, for Ir-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA). This reaction provides access to α-allyl deconjugated butyrolactams with a moderate to good dr and an excellent er. This is the first AAA reaction of deconjugated butyrolactams. Allyl transposition through Cope rearrangement appears to proceed stereospecifically to form γ-allyl conjugated butyrolactams.

Abstract
The first iridium-catalyzed enantioselective olefinic C(sp2)-H allylic alkylation is developed in cooperation with Lewis base catalysis. This reaction, catalyzed by cinchonidine and an in situ generated cyclometalated Ir(i)/phosphoramidite complex, makes use of the latent enolate character of an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, namely coumalate ester, to introduce an allyl group at its α-position in a branched-selective manner in moderate to good yield with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 98 : 2 er).

Abstract
Spirocyclic hexadienones with multiple stereogenic centers are frequently found in natural products but remain challenging targets to synthesize. Herein, we report the enantioselective desymmetrization of bisphenol derivatives via Ir-catalyzed allylic dearomatization reactions, affording spirocyclic hexadienone derivatives with up to three contiguous stereogenic centers in good yields (up to 90%) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). The high efficiency of this reaction is exemplified by the short reaction time (30 min), low catalyst loading (down to 0.2 mol %), and ability to perform the reaction on a gram-scale. The total syntheses of (+)-tatanan B and (+)-tatanan C were also realized using this Ir-catalyzed allylic dearomatization reaction as a key step.

Abstract
Among the unstabilized enolates used as nucleophiles in iridium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation reactions, amide enolates are the least explored. Vinyl azides are now employed as amide enolate surrogates in Ir-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation with branched allylic alcohols as the allylic electrophile. Competing reaction pathways are suppressed through the systematic tuning of the steric and electronic properties of vinyl azide to effect the α-allylic alkylation of secondary acetamides with high atom economy, exclusive branched selectivity, and mostly excellent enantioselectivity.
