Abstract
The first total synthesis of the pentacyclic phenylnaphthacenoid type II polyketide antibiotic formicamycin H is described. A key feature of the synthesis involves the convergent, regioselective assembly of the tetracyclic core via ruthenium-catalyzed α-ketol-benzocyclobutenone [4 + 2] cycloaddition. Double dehydration of the diol-containing cycloadduct provides an achiral enone, which upon asymmetric nucleophilic epoxidation and further manipulations delivers the penultimate tetracyclic trichloride in enantiomerically enriched form. Subsequent chemo- and atroposelective Suzuki cross-coupling of the tetracyclic trichloride introduces the E-ring to complete the total synthesis. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses of two model compounds suggest that the initially assigned stereochemistry of the axially chiral C6-C7 linkage may require revision.

Abstract
Branched allylic esters and carboxylates are fundamental motifs prevalent in natural products and drug molecules. The direct allylic C-H oxygenation of internal alkenes represents one of the most straightforward approaches, bypassing the requirement for an allylic leaving group as in the classical Tsuji-Trost reaction. However, current methods suffer from limited scope─often accompanied by selectivity issues─thus hampering further development. Herein we report a photocatalytic platform as a general solution to these problems, enabling the coupling of diverse internal alkenes with carboxylic acids, alcohols, and other O-nucleophiles, typically in a highly regio- and diastereoselective manner.

Abstract
Polypropionates, characterized by their alternating sequence of stereocenters bearing methyl- and hydroxy-groups, are structurally diverse natural products of utmost importance.[1] Herein, we introduce a novel concept approach towards polypropionate synthesis featuring a diastereodivergent reductive epoxide-opening as a key step. Readily available and stereochemically uniform trisubstituted sec-glycidols serve as branching points for the highly selective synthesis of all isomers of polypropionate building blocks with three or more consecutive stereocenters. Stereodiversification is accomplished by an unprecedented mechanism-control over the stereochemically complementary modification of the epoxide's tertiary C-atom with excellent control of regio- and stereoselectivity. Since our method is not only suited for the preparation of specific targets but also for compound libraries, it will have a great impact on polypropionate synthesis.

Abstract
Archangiumide is the first known macrolide natural product comprising an endocyclic allene. For the ring strain that this linear substructure might entail, it was planned to unveil the allene at a very late stage of the projected total synthesis; in actual fact, this was achieved as the last step of the longest linear sequence by using an otherwise globally deprotected substrate. This unconventional timing was made possible by a gold catalyzed rearrangement of a macrocyclic propargyl benzyl ether derivative that uses a -PMB group as latent hydride source to unveil the signature cycloallene; the protecting group therefore gains a strategic role beyond its mere safeguarding function. Although the gold catalyzed reaction per se is stereoablative, the macrocyclic frame of the target was found to impose high selectivity and a stereoconvergent character on the transformation. The required substrate was formed by ring closing alkyne metathesis (RCAM) with the aid of a new air-stable molybdenum alkylidyne catalyst.

Abstract
Tetrodotoxin and congeners are specific voltage-gated sodium channel blockers that exhibit remarkable anesthetic and analgesic effects. Here, we present a scalable asymmetric syntheses of Tetrodotoxin and 9-epiTetrodotoxin from the abundant chemical feedstock furfuryl alcohol. The optically pure cyclohexane skeleton is assembled via a stereoselective Diels-Alder reaction. The dense heteroatom substituents are established sequentially by a series of functional group interconversions on highly oxygenated cyclohexane frameworks, including a chemoselective cyclic anhydride opening, and a decarboxylative hydroxylation. An innovative SmI2-mediated concurrent fragmentation, an oxo-bridge ring opening and ester reduction followed by an Upjohn dihydroxylation deliver the highly oxidized skeleton. Ruthenium-catalyzed oxidative alkyne cleavage and formation of the hemiaminal and orthoester under acidic conditions enable the rapid assembly of Tetrodotoxin, anhydro-Tetrodotoxin, 9-epiTetrodotoxin, and 9-epi lactone-Tetrodotoxin.

Abstract
The first total synthesis of (-)-5-deoxyenterocin has been accomplished starting from pentane-1,3,5-triol (16 steps in the longest linear sequence, 0.2 % overall yield). (-)-Menthone served as the source of chirality to distinguish the enantiotopic hydroxymethyl groups of the substrate. Key steps of the synthesis include two aldol reactions to either end of the C5 -skeleton, a diastereoselective hydroxylation reaction and a biomimetic twofold intramolecular aldol reaction as the final step. Although this step suffered from geometrical constraints and was low yielding (10 %), enough synthetic material could be secured to substantiate the relative and absolute configuration of the natural product. Additional experiments were directed toward a C-H functionalization at carbon atom C5. Despite the fact that several protocols could be successfully applied to (3aR)-(+)-sclareolide as model substrate, (-)-5-deoxyenterocin withstood any selective functionalization.

Abstract
Cu-catalyzed highly stereoselective and enantiodivergent syntheses of (Z)- or (E)-β,γ-unsaturated ketones from 1,3-butadienyl silanes are developed. The nature of the silyl group of the dienes has a significant impact on the stereo- and enantioselectivity of the reactions. Under the developed catalytic systems, the reactions of acyl fluorides with phenyldiemthylsilyl-substituted 1,3-diene gave (Z)-β,γ-unsaturated ketones bearing an α-tertiary stereogenic center with excellent enantioselectivities and high Z-selectivities, where the reactions with triisopropylsilyl-substituted 1,3-butadiene formed (E)-β,γ-unsaturated ketones with high optical purities and excellent E-selectivities. The products generated from the reactions contain three functional groups with orthogonal chemical reactivities, which can undergo a variety of transformations to afford synthetically valuable intermediates.

Abstract
We present the first enantioselective nickel-catalyzed borylative coupling of 1,3-dienes with aldehydes, providing an efficient route to highly valuable homoallylic alcohols in a single step. The reaction involves the 1,4-carboboration of dienes, leading to the formation of C-C and C-B bonds accompanied by the construction of two continuous stereogenic centers. Enabled by a chiral spiro phosphine-oxazoline nickel complex, this transformation yields products with exceptional diastereoselectivity, E-selectivity, and enantioselectivity. The diastereoselectivity of the reaction can be controlled by employing either (Z)-1,3-dienes or (E)-1,3-dienes.

Abstract
The first total synthesis and structure validation of an arenimycin/SF2446 type II polyketide is described, as represented by de novo construction of SF2446 B3, the aglycone shared by this family of type II polyketides. Ruthenium-catalyzed α-ketol-benzocyclobutenone [4 + 2] cycloaddition, which occurs via successive stereoablation-stereoregeneration, affects a double dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation wherein two racemic starting materials combine to form the congested angucycline bay region with control of regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity. This work represents the first application of transfer hydrogenative cycloaddition and enantioselective intermolecular metal-catalyzed C-C bond activation in target-oriented synthesis.

Abstract
The first systematic study of catalytic enantioselective 1,2-additions to acrolein is described. Specifically, using allyl alcohol as a tractable, inexpensive acrolein proelectrophile, iridium-catalyzed acrolein allylation is achieved with high levels of regio-, anti-diastereo-, and enantioselectivity. This process delivers 3-hydroxy-1,5-hexadienes, a useful compound class that is otherwise challenging to access via enantioselective catalysis. Two-fold use of this method unlocks concise total syntheses of amphidinolide R (9 vs 23 steps, LLS) and amphidinolide J (9 vs 23 or 26 steps, LLS), which are prepared in fewer than half the steps previously possible, and the first total synthesis of amphidinolide S (10 steps, LLS).

Abstract
Iodide-bound ruthenium-JOSIPHOS complexes catalyze the redox-neutral C-C coupling of primary alcohols 2a-2r with the gaseous allene (propadiene) 1a to form enantiomerically enriched homoallylic alcohols 3a-3r with complete atom-efficiency. Using formic acid as reductant, aldehydes dehydro-2a and dehydro-2c participate in reductive C-C coupling with allene to deliver adducts 3a and 3c with comparable levels of asymmetric induction. Deuterium labeling studies corroborate a mechanism in which alcohol dehydrogenation triggers allene hydroruthenation to form transient allylruthenium-aldehyde pairs that participate in carbonyl addition. Notably, due to a kinetic preference for primary alcohol dehydrogenation, chemoselective C-C coupling of 1°,2°-1,3-diols occurs in the absence of protecting groups. As illustrated by the synthesis of C7-C15 of spirastrellolide B and F (7 vs 17 steps), C3-C10 of cryptocarya diacetate (3 vs 7 or 9 steps), and a fragment common to C8'-C14' of mycolactone F (1 vs 4 steps) and C22-C28 marinomycin A (1 vs 9 steps), this capability streamlines type I polyketide construction.

Abstract
Polyketide natural products often contain common repeat motifs, for example, propionate, acetate and deoxypropionate, and so can be synthesized by iterative processes. We report here a highly efficient iterative strategy for the synthesis of polyacetates based on boronic ester homologation that does not require functional group manipulation between iterations. This process involves sequential asymmetric diboration of a terminal alkene, forming a 1,2-bis(boronic ester), followed by regio- and stereoselective homologation of the primary boronic ester with a butenyl metallated carbenoid to generate a 1,3-bis(boronic ester). Each transformation independently controls the stereochemical configuration, making the process highly versatile, and the sequence can be iterated prior to stereospecific oxidation of the 1,3-polyboronic ester to yield the 1,3-polyol. This methodology has been applied to a 14-step synthesis of the oxopolyene macrolide bahamaolide A, and the versatility of the 1,3-polyboronic esters has been demonstrated in various stereospecific transformations, leading to polyalkenes, -alkynes, -ketones and -aromatics with full stereocontrol.

Abstract
Iodide-bound ruthenium-JOSIPHOS complexes catalyze the redox-neutral C-C coupling of primary alcohols with methylallene (1,2-butadiene) or 1,3-butadiene to form products of anti-crotylation with good to excellent levels of diastereo- and enantioselectivity. Distinct from other methods, direct crotylation of primary alcohols in the presence of unprotected secondary alcohols is possible, enabling generation of spirastrellolide B (C9-C15) and leucascandrolide A (C9-C15) substructures in significantly fewer steps than previously possible.

Abstract
Apratoxin A is a potent anticancer natural product whose key polyketide fragment constitutes a considerable challenge for organic synthesis, with five prior syntheses requiring 12 to 20 steps for its preparation. By combining different redox-economical catalytic stereoselective transformations, the key polyketide fragment could be rapidly prepared. Followed by a site-selective protection of the diol, this strategy enables the preparation of the apratoxin A fragment in only six steps, representing the shortest route to this polyketide.

Abstract
Background Liver inflammation is a multistep process that is linked with cell membrane fatty acids composition. The effectiveness of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) undergoes an irreversible change during processing due to their unsaturated nature; so the formation of nanocarrier for EPA is crucial for improving EPA’s bioavailability and pharmacological properties. Objective In this study we aimed to evaluate the efficiency of EPA alone or loaded silica nanoemulsion on the management of hepatic inflammation induced by diethyl nitrosamine (DEN) through the enhancement of the cell membrane structure and functions. Methods The new formula of EPA was prepared to modify the properties of EPA. Forty-eight male Wistar albino rats were classified into: control, EPA, EPA loaded silica nanoemulsion (EPA–NE), DEN induced hepatic inflammation; DEN induced hepatic inflammation treated with EPA or EPA –NE groups. Plasma tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), liver hydroxyproline (Hyp) content, and liver oxidant and anti-oxidants were estimated. Urinary 8- hydroxyguanozine (8- OHdG) and erythrocyte membrane fatty acids fractions were estimated by High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Also, histopathology studies were done to verify our hypothesis. Results It was appeared that administration of EPA, in particular EPA loaded silica nanoemulsion, ameliorated the inflammatory response, increased the activity of the anti-oxidants, reduced levels of oxidants, and improved cell membrane structure compared to hepatic inflammation induced by DEN group. Histopathological examination confirmed these results. Conclusion EPA and notably EPA loaded silica nanoemulsion strongly recommended as a promising supplement in the management of hepatic inflammation.

Abstract
ConspectusCyclometalated π-allyliridium-C,O-benzoate complexes discovered in the Krische laboratory display unique amphiphilic properties, catalyzing both nucleophilic carbonyl allylation and electrophilic allylation of diverse amines as well as nitronates. Given the importance of chiral amines in FDA-approved small-molecule drugs, a collaboration with medicinal chemists at Genentech that included on-site graduate student internships was undertaken to explore and expand the scope of π-allyliridium-C,O-benzoate-catalyzed allylic amination and related processes. As described in this Account, our collective experimental studies have unlocked asymmetric allylic aminations of exceptionally broad utility and scope. Specifically, using racemic branched alkyl-substituted allylic acetate proelectrophiles, primary and secondary aliphatic or aromatic amines, including indoles, engage in highly regio- and enantioselective allylic amination. Additionally, unactivated nitronates were found to be competent nucleophilic partners for regio- and enantioselective allylic alkylation, enabling entry to β-stereogenic α-quaternary primary amines. Notably, these π-allyliridium-C,O-benzoate-catalyzed allylic substitutions, which display complete branched regioselectivity in reactions of alkyl-substituted allyl electrophiles, complement the scope of corresponding iridium phosphoramidite-catalyzed allylic aminations, which require aryl-substituted allyl electrophiles to promote high levels of branched regioselectivity. Computational, kinetic, ESI-CID-MS, and isotopic labeling studies were undertaken to understand the mechanism of these processes, including the origins of regio- and enantioselectivity. Isotopic labeling studies suggest that C-N bond formation occurs through outer-sphere addition to the π-allyl. DFT calculations corroborate C-N bond formation via outer-sphere addition and suggest that early transition states and distinct trans effects of diastereomeric chiral-at-iridium π-allyl complexes render the reaction less sensitive to steric effects, accounting for complete levels of branched regioselectivity in reactions of hindered amine and nitronate nucleophiles. Reaction progress kinetic analysis (RPKA) reveals a zero-order dependence on allyl acetate, a first-order dependence on the catalyst, and a fractional-order dependence on the amine. As corroborated by ESI-CID-MS analysis, the 0.4 kinetic order dependence on the amine may reflect the intervention of cesium-bridged amine dimers, which dissociate to form monomeric cesium amide nucleophiles. Hence, the requirement of cesium carbonate (vs lower alkali metal carbonates) in these processes may reside in cesium's capacity for Lewis acid-enhanced Brønsted acidification of the amine pronucleophile. Beyond the development of catalytic processes for the synthesis of novel chiral amines, the present research was conducted by graduate students who benefited from career development experiences associated with training in both academic and industrial laboratories.

Abstract
Bastimolide B is a polyhydroxy macrolide isolated from marine cyanobacteria displaying antimalarial activity. It features a dense array of hydroxylated stereogenic centers with 1,5-relationships along a hydrocarbon chain. These 1,5-polyols represent a particularly challenging motif for synthesis, as the remote position of the stereocenters hampers stereocontrol. Herein, we present a strategy for 1,5-polyol stereocontrolled synthesis based on iterative boronic ester homologation with enantiopure magnesium carbenoids. By merging boronic ester homologation and transition-metal-catalyzed alkene hydroboration and diboration, the acyclic backbone of bastimolide B was rapidly assembled from readily available building blocks with full control over the remote stereocenters, enabling the total synthesis to be completed in 16 steps (LLS).

Abstract
The first enantioselective ruthenium-catalyzed carbonyl vinylations via hydrogen autotransfer are described. Using a ruthenium-JOSIPHOS catalyst, primary alcohols 2a-2m and 2-butyne 1a are converted to chiral allylic alcohols 3a-3m with excellent levels of absolute stereocontrol. Notably, 1°,2°-1,3-diols participate in site-selective C-C coupling, enabling asymmetric carbonyl vinylation beyond premetalated reagents, exogenous reductants, or hydroxyl protecting groups. Using 2-propanol as a reductant, aldehydes dehydro-2a, 2l participate in highly enantioselective 2-butyne-mediated vinylation under otherwise identical reaction conditions. Regio-, stereo-, and site-selective vinylations mediated by 2-pentyne 1b to form adducts 3n, 3o, and epi-3o also are described. The tiglyl alcohol motif obtained upon butyne-mediated vinylation, which is itself found in diverse secondary metabolites, may be converted to commonly encountered polyketide stereodiads, -triads, and -tetrads, as demonstrated by the formation of adducts 4a-4d. The collective mechanistic studies, including deuterium labeling experiments, corroborate a catalytic cycle involving alcohol dehydrogenation to form a transient aldehyde and a ruthenium hydride, which engages in alkyne hydrometalation to form a nucleophilic vinylruthenium species that enacts carbonyl addition. A stereochemical model for carbonyl addition invoking formyl CH···I[Ru] and CH···O≡C[Ru] hydrogen bonds is proposed based on prior calculations and crystallographic data.

Abstract
The total synthesis of soraphen A, a myxobacterial metabolite and inhibitor of acetyl CoA carboxylase, was completed in 11 steps (longest linear sequence), less than half the steps previously required. Seven metal-catalyzed processes were deployed to unlock step-economy (comprising five asymmetric processes and four C-C bond formations). The present route does not utilize chiral auxiliaries, and four of five C-C bond formations exploit non-premetalated partners. To maximize convergency, an asymmetric Tsuji reduction was developed using a Pd-AntPhos catalyst that allows a metathesis-inactive allylic carbonate to serve as a masked terminal olefin, thereby enabling successive olefin metathesis events.

Abstract
We report herein the development of stereodivergent syntheses of enantioenriched homoallylic alcohols using chiral nonracemic α-CH2 Bpin-substituted crotylboronate. Chiral phosphoric acid (S)-A-catalyzed asymmetric allyl addition with the reagent gave Z-anti-homoallylic alcohols with excellent enantioselectivities and Z-selectivities. When the enantiomeric acid catalyst (R)-A was utilized, the stereoselectivity was completely reversed and E-anti-homoallylic alcohols were obtained with high E-selectivities and excellent enantioselectivities. By pairing the chirality of the boron reagent with the catalyst, two complementary stereoisomers of chiral homoallylic alcohols can be obtained selectively from the same boron reagent. DFT computational studies were conducted to probe the origins of the observed stereoselectivity. These reactions generate highly enantioenriched homoallylic alcohol products that are valuable for rapid construction of polyketide structural frameworks.

Abstract
For a long time, the organic chemistry of sulfur dioxide (SO2) consisted of sulfinates that react with carbon electrophiles to generate sulfones. With alkenes and other unsaturated compounds, SO2 generates polymeric materials such as polysulfones. More recently, H-ene, sila-ene and hetero-Diels–Alder reactions of SO2 have been realized under conditions that avoid polymer formation. Sultines resulting from the hetero-Diels–Alder reactions of conjugated dienes and SO2 are formed more rapidly than the corresponding more stable sulfolenes resulting from the cheletropic additions. In the presence of a protic or Lewis acid catalyst, the sultines derived from 1-alkoxydienes are ionized into zwitterionic intermediates bearing 1-alkoxyallylic cation moieties which react with electro-rich alkenes such as enol silyl ethers and allylsilanes with high stereoselectivity. (C–C-bond formation through Umpolung induced by SO2). This produces silyl sulfinates that react with carbon electrophiles to give sulfones (one-pot four component asymmetric synthesis of sulfones), or with Cl2, generating the corresponding sulfonamides that can be reacted in situ with primary and secondary amines (one-pot four component asymmetric synthesis of sulfonamides). Alternatively, Pd-catalyzed desulfinylation generates enantiomerically pure polypropionate stereotriads in one-pot operations. The chirons so obtained are flanked by an ethyl ketone moiety on one side and by a prop-1-en-1-yl carboxylate group on the other. They are ready for two-directional chain elongations, realizing expeditious synthesis of long-chain polypropionates and polyketides. The stereotriads have also been converted into simpler polypropionates such as the cyclohexanone moiety of baconipyrone A and B, Kishi’s stereoheptad unit of rifamycin S, Nicolaou’s C1–C11-fragment and Koert’s C16–CI fragment of apoptolidin A. This has also permitted the first total synthesis of (-)-dolabriferol.

Abstract
Atom-efficient processes that occur via addition, redistribution or removal of hydrogen underlie many large volume industrial processes and pervade all segments of chemical industry. Although carbonyl addition is one of the oldest and most broadly utilized methods for C-C bond formation, the delivery of non-stabilized carbanions to carbonyl compounds has relied on premetalated reagents or metallic/organometallic reductants, which pose issues of safety and challenges vis-à-vis large volume implementation. Catalytic carbonyl reductive couplings promoted via hydrogenation, transfer hydrogenation and hydrogen auto-transfer allow abundant unsaturated hydrocarbons to serve as substitutes to organometallic reagents, enabling C-C bond formation in the absence of stoichiometric metals. This perspective (a) highlights past milestones in catalytic hydrogenation, hydrogen transfer and hydrogen auto-transfer, (b) summarizes current methods for catalytic enantioselective carbonyl reductive couplings, and (c) describes future opportunities based on the patterns of reactivity that animate transformations of this type.

Abstract
The regio- and enantioselective allylic substitution of branched alkyl-substituted allylic acetates employing malonates has been achieved through a process that calls for Krische's π-allyliridium C,O-benzoate catalyst. The protocol reported herein can be applied to a diverse set of branched alkyl substrates that are generally not well tolerated in the other two types of Ir-catalyzed allylation.

Abstract
We report a new method for constructing propionate-derived trisubstituted alkene motifs in a stereoselective manner. 1-Substituted 1,1-di(pinacolatoboryl)-(E)-alk-2-enes are generated in situ from 1-substituted 1,1-di(pinacolatoboryl)alk-3-enes through ruthenium(II)-catalyzed double-bond transposition. These species undergo a chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed allylation reaction of aldehydes to produce the E isomers of anti-homoallylic alcohols. On the other hand, the corresponding Z isomers of anti-homoallylic alcohols are obtained when a dimeric palladium(I) complex is employed as the catalyst for this double-bond transposition. Thus, both E and Z isomers can be synthesized from the same starting materials. A B-C(sp2 ) bond remaining with the allylation product undergoes the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction to furnish a propionate-derived trisubstituted alkene motif in a stereo-defined form. The present method to construct the motifs with (E)- and (Z)-alkenes are successfully applied to the syntheses of (+)-isotrichostatic acid, (-)-isotrichostatin RK, and (+)-trichostatic acid, respectively.

Abstract
A Cu-catalyzed regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective carboboration of 1,1-bisboryl-1,3-butadiene is developed to generate enantioenriched 3,6'-bisboryl-anti-1,2-oxaborinan-3-enes. DFT calculations indicate that the initial diene 1,2-borocupration forms a 3 η-allylic copper as the most stable intermediate. Subsequent aldehyde addition, however, operates under Curtin-Hammett control via a more reactive α,α-bisboryl tertiary allylcopper species to furnish products with high enantioselectivities. The three boryl groups in the products are properly differentiated and can undergo a variety of chemoselective transformations to produce enantioenriched homoallylic alcohols with a stereodefined trisubstituted alkene.

Abstract
The development of α,α-disubstituted crotylboronate reagents is reported. Chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed asymmetric aldehyde addition with the developed E-crotylboron reagent gave (E)-anti-1,2-oxaborinan-3-enes with excellent enantioselectivities and E-selectivities. With BF3·OEt2 catalysis, the stereoselectivity is reversed, and (Z)-δ-boryl-anti-homoallylic alcohols are obtained with excellent Z-selectivities from the same E-crotylboron reagent. The Z-crotylboron reagent also participates in BF3·OEt2-catalyzed crotylation to furnish (Z)-δ-boryl-syn-homoallylic alcohols with good Z-selectivities. DFT computations establish the origins of observed enantio- and stereoselectivities of chiral Brønsted acid-catalyzed asymmetric allylation. Stereochemical models for BF3·OEt2-catalyzed reactions are proposed to rationalize the Z-selective allyl additions. These reactions generate highly valuable homoallylic alcohol products with a stereodefined trisubstituted alkene unit. The synthetic utility is further demonstrated by the total syntheses of salinipyrones A and B.

Abstract
Covering: up to 2019 Selective synthesis with control of remote stereogenic centers has long been a challenge in organic chemistry. In recent years the interest in this topic has been energized by isolation and synthetic studies of tetrafibricin and other natural products containing 1,5-polyols, such as amphidinol 3, marinomycins, and caylobolide. Here we discuss recent developments in 1,5-polyol synthesis, including an overview of selected bioactive natural products in this class and examples of new synthetic methodologies and strategies dedicated to remote stereocontrol in these structures. To illustrate in greater depth, we review several instructive examples of how these innovations have been applied in synthetic studies on tetrafibricin.

Abstract
Catalytic reductive coupling of enone, acrylate, or vinyl heteroaromatic pronucleophiles with carbonyl or imine partners offers an alternative to base-mediated enolization in aldol- and Mannich-type reactions. In this review, direct catalytic reductive aldol and Mannich reactions are exhaustively catalogued on the basis of metal or organocatalyst. Stepwise processes involving enone conjugate reduction to form discrete enol or (metallo)enolate derivatives followed by introduction of carbonyl or imine electrophiles and aldol reactions initiated via enone conjugate addition are not covered.

Abstract
A catalytic sequence for the diastereo- and enantioselective preparation of homoallylic alcohols with an adjacent quaternary (stereo)center is reported. The one-pot process relies on the use of a single (achiral or chiral) iridium complex to catalyze the concomitant isomerization of primary allylic alcohols and homoallylboronates into (chiral) aldehydes and allylboronates, respectively. In the same flask, a chiral Brønsted acid is added next to engage the isomerization products into a stereocontrolled allylboration reaction. Structural variations have been performed on both the allylic alcohols and the homoallylboronates. This mild process affords an array of stereochemically congested and complex chiral secondary homoallylic alcohols in high yield, excellent diastereoselectivity, and usually high enantioselectivity.

Abstract
This review highlights the different enantioselective catalyst-controlled cascades creating multiple alcohol functions through the formation of several carbon-carbon bonds. Through subsequent simple derivatization, these strategies ensure the rapid preparation of 1,3-polyols. Thanks to the use of efficient metal- or organo-catalysts, these cascades enable the selective assembly of multiple substrates considerably limiting operations and waste generation. For this purpose, several mono- or bi-directional approaches have been devised allowing successive C-C bond-forming events. The considerable synthetic economies these cascades enable have been demonstrated in the preparation of a wide variety of complex bioactive natural products, notably polyketides.
