Abstract
Chemoenzymatic cascade catalysis has emerged as a revolutionary tool for streamlining traditional retrosynthetic disconnections, creating new possibilities for the asymmetric synthesis of valuable chiral compounds. Here we construct a one-pot concurrent chemoenzymatic cascade by integrating organobismuth-catalyzed aldol condensation with ene-reductase (ER)-catalyzed enantioselective reduction, enabling the formal asymmetric α-benzylation of cyclic ketones. To achieve this, we develop a pair of enantiocomplementary ERs capable of reducing α-arylidene cyclic ketones, lactams, and lactones. Our engineered mutants exhibit significantly higher activity, up to 37-fold, and broader substrate specificity compared to the parent enzyme. The key to success is due to the well-tuned hydride attack distance/angle and, more importantly, to the synergistic proton-delivery triade of Tyr28-Tyr69-Tyr169. Molecular docking and density functional theory (DFT) studies provide important insights into the bioreduction mechanisms. Furthermore, we demonstrate the synthetic utility of the best mutants in the asymmetric synthesis of several key chiral synthons.

Abstract
Central chirality is an important chiral element used in the design of chiral ligands and catalysts. Mostly, the attention of organic chemists is focused on developing of chiral ligands with stable stereogenic centers. However, the N-chirality in chiral ligand design has been rarely explored due to its flexibility. Here we demonstrate the design, synthesis, and application of a class of simple P,N-ligands with flexible N-chirality and their derived iridium complexes with fixed N-chiral stereocenters. Both fixed configurations of the N-stereocenter of the iridium complexes could be selectively formed from the same chiral ligand. This pair of diastereoisomeric iridium complexes showed good performance in the enantiodivergent asymmetric hydrogenation of exocyclic α,β-unsaturated lactams. The N-H group plays an impressive role in catalytic activity. Computational studies emphasized the importance of N-chirality and N-H group.

Abstract
A highly enantioselective hydrogenation of exocyclic α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds catalyzed by Rh/bisphosphine-thiourea (ZhaoPhos) has been developed, giving the corresponding α-chiral cyclic lactones, lactams and ketones with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% yield and 99% ee). Remarkably, the hydrogen bond between the substrate and the catalyst plays a critical role in this transformation. The synthetic utility of this protocol has been demonstrated by efficient synthesis of chiral 3-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperidine, a key chiral fragment of bioactive molecules.

Abstract
This work identifies a family of Ir/phosphite-sulfoximine catalysts that has been successfully used in the asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins with poorly coordinative or noncoordinative groups. In comparison with analogue Ir/phosphine-sulfoximine catalysts previously reported, the presence of a phosphite group extended the range of olefins than can be efficiently hydrogenated. High enantioselectivities, comparable to the best ones reported, have been achieved for a wide range of olefins containing relevant poorly coordinative groups such as α,β-unsaturated enones, esters, lactones, and lactams as well as alkenylboronic esters.

Abstract
An Ir/spiro[4,4]-1,6-nonadiene-based phosphine-oxazoline ligand (SpinPHOX) complex-catalyzed double asymmetric hydrogenation of 3,6-dialkylidene-1,4-dimethylpiperazine-2,5-diones has been developed, providing efficient and practical access to a wide variety of chiral 3,6-disubstituted-2,5-diketopiperazines in high yields with exclusive cis-diastereo- and excellent enantioselectivities (>99% de, up to 98% ee). The synthetic utilities of the protocol have been demonstrated in a gram scale synthesis of 6a and efficient construction of chiral products 8, 14, and 17 as well as a 2-butenyl-bridged bicyclic diketopiperazine 10 and hydroxydiketopiperazine 11. With an analogous achiral Ir catalyst, the hydrogenation of enantiopure monohydrogenated intermediate 7a gave cis-6a as the only product, indicating that the second-step hydrogenation of the titled transformation is a chiral substrate controlled process. The reaction profile study for asymmetric hydrogenation (AH) of 5a revealed that the concentration of the monohydrogenation intermediate 7a remained at a low level (<8%) during the course of hydrogenation. The hydrogenation of 5a to 6a proceeded significantly faster than that of its half-hydrogenated intermediate ( S)-7a, indicating that the titled reaction involves primarily a processive mechanism, in which a single catalyst molecule performs consecutive hydrogenation of the two C═C double bonds in substrate 5a without dissociation of the partially reduced 7a. The present protocol represents a rare example of asymmetric catalytic consecutive hydrogenation of heterocycles and provides an alternative way for efficient construction of cyclic dipeptides.

Abstract
In our continued efforts to improve the potential utility of the α-methylene-γ-lactone scaffold, 62 new and 59 known natural α-methylenelactam analogues including α-methylene-γ-lactams, α-arylidene-γ and δ-lactams, and 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones were synthesized as the bioisosteric analogues of the α-methylenelactone scaffold. The results of antifungal and cytotoxic activity indicated that among these derivatives compound (E)-1-(2, 6-dichlorobenzyl)-3-(2-fluorobenzylidene) pyrrolidin-2-one (Py51) possessed good selectivity with the highest antifungal activity against Colletotrichum orbiculare with IC50 = 10.4 μM but less cytotoxic activity with IC50 = 141.2 μM (against HepG2 cell line) and 161.2 μM (against human hepatic L02 cell line). Ultrastructural change studies performed by transmission electron microscope showed that Py51 could cause important cell morphological changes in C. orbiculare, such as plasma membrane detached from cell wall, cell wall thickening, mitochondria disruption, a dramatic increase in vacuolation, and eventually a complete loss in the integrity of organelles. Significantly, mitochondria appeared one of the primary targets, as confirmed by their remarkably aberrant morphological changes. Analysis of structure-activity relationships revealed that incorporation of the aryl group into the α-exo-methylene and the N-benzyl substitution increased the activity. Meanwhile, the α-arylidene-γ-lactams have superiority in selectivity over the 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones. Based on the results, the N-benzyl substituted α-(2-fluorophenyl)-γ-lactam was identified as the most promising natural-based scaffold for further discovering and developing improved crop-protection agents.

Abstract
Enzymatic and homogeneous catalysis offer complementary means to produce enantiopure products. Incorporation of achiral, biotinylated aminodiphosphine-rhodium complexes in (strept)avidin affords enantioselective hydrogenation catalysts. A combined chemogenetic procedure allows the optimization of the activity and the selectivity of such artificial metalloenzymes: the reduction of acetamidoacrylate proceeds to produce N-acetamidoalanine in either 96 % ee (R) or 80 % ee (S). In addition to providing a chiral second coordination sphere and, thus, selectivity to the catalyst, the phenomenon of protein-accelerated catalysis (e.g., increased activity) was unraveled. Such artificial metalloenzymes based on the biotin-avidin technology display features that are reminiscent of both homogeneous and of enzymatic catalysis.

Abstract
Two methods to produce (2S)-5-amino-2-(1-n-propyl-1H-imidazol-4-ylmethyl)-pentanoic acid were investigated. Diastereoisomeric salt resolution, using the quinidine salt, gave the desired intermediate in 98% ee and 33% yield. Asymmetric hydrogenation of various substrates gave high conversions, with up to 83% ee. Integration of these two approaches via asymmetric hydrogenation of a quinidine salt substrate followed by crystallization provided the desired intermediate in 94% ee and 76% yield.

Abstract
Supramolecular chemistry has grown into a major scientific field over the last thirty years and has fueled numerous developments at the interfaces with biology and physics, clearly demonstrating its potential at a multidisciplinary level. Simultaneously, organometallic chemistry and transition metal catalysis have matured in an incredible manner, broadening the pallet of tools available for chemical conversions. The interface between supramolecular chemistry and transition metal catalysis has received surprisingly little attention. It provides, however, novel and elegant strategies that could lead to new tools in the search for effective catalysts, as well as the possibility of novel conversions induced by metal centres that are in unusual environments. This perspective describes new approaches to transition metal catalyst development that evolve from a combination of supramolecular strategies and rational ligand design, which may offer transition metal catalysts for future applications.

Abstract
Homogeneous and enzymatic catalysis offer complementary means to generate enantiomerically pure compounds. Incorporation of achiral biotinylated rhodium-diphosphine complexes into (strept)avidin yields artificial metalloenzymes for the hydrogenation of N-protected dehydroamino acids. A chemogenetic optimization procedure allows one to produce (R)-acetamidoalanine with 96% enantioselectivity. These hybrid catalysts display features reminiscent both of enzymatic and of homogeneous systems.

Abstract
We report a new strategy for the preparation of chelating bidentate ligands, which involves just the mixing of two monodentate ligands functionalized with complementary binding sites. In the current example, the assembly process is based on selective metal-ligand interactions, using phosphite zinc(II) porphyrins 1-6 and the nitrogen donor ligands b-i. From only 16 monodentate ligands, a library of 60 palladium catalysts based on 48 bidentate ligand assemblies has been prepared. The relatively small catalyst library gave a large variety in the selectivity of the alkylation of rac-1,3-diphenyl-2-propenyl acetate. Importantly, small variations in the building blocks lead to large differences in the enantioselectivity imposed by the catalyst (up to 97% ee).

Abstract
High-throughput synthesis and screening approaches to catalyst discovery and optimization are systematically changing the way in which catalyst research is conducted. Increased rates of innovation, cost effectiveness, improved intellectual property, reduced time to market and an improved probability of success are some of the attractive features that demand consideration. Advances made over the past few years reveal that any initial skepticism is waning, and high-throughput approaches to catalyst discovery are now being implemented broadly in industrial and academic laboratories.

Abstract
Free-radical mediated cyclizative carbonylations of azaenynes were carried out using TTMSS as a radical mediator to compare the efficiency and the stereochemistry with those using tributyltin hydride. Using a substrate concentration of 0.1 M, the reactions gave good yields of alpha-silylmethylene lactams having four to seven-membered rings. The observed E-diastereoselectivity of the resulting vinylsilane moiety is in sharp contrast to the Z-selectivity observed during the analogous carbonylation using tributyltin hydride. When hexanethiol was used as the radical mediator, alpha-thiomethylene lactams were formed with E-favoring stereoselectivity again. Ab initio and DFT molecular orbital calculations on the stability of E and Z products were carried out for a set of five-membered methylene lactams bearing SnH3, SiH3, and SMe groups. The distinct thermodynamic preference for the Z-isomer was only predicted for the Sn-bearing lactam. A steric effect due to the bulky (TMS)3Si group is proposed for the E-selectivity observed in the TTMSS-mediated reaction.
