Abstract
Nitrogen heterocycles are commonly found in bioactive natural products and drugs. However, the biocatalytic tools for nitrogen heterocycle synthesis are limited. Herein, we report the discovery of vanillyl alcohol oxidases (VAOs) as efficient biocatalysts for the one-pot synthesis of 2-aryl thiazolines from various 4-hydroxybenzaldehydes and aminothiols. The wild-type biocatalyst features a broad scope of 4-hydroxybenzaldehydes. Though the scope of aminothiols is limited, it could be improved via semi-rational protein engineering, generating a variant to produce previously inaccessible cysteine-derived bioactive 2-aryl thiazolines using the wild-type VAO. Benefiting from the derivatizable functional groups in the enzymatic products, we further chemically modified these products to expand the chemical space, offering a new chemoenzymatic strategy for the green and efficient synthesis of structurally diverse 2-aryl-thiazoline derivatives to prompt their use in drug discovery and catalysis.

Abstract
Background:
2-oxazolines and 2-thiazolines are important heterocycles due to their extensive
applications in chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology. Most of the precedent methods
for preparing these heterocycles involve one or more drawbacks, including harsh reaction conditions,
long reaction times, low yields of products, high temperature, and toxic solvents.
Objective:
The aim of this study was to develop a new and eco-efficient method for the preparation
of 2-oxazolines and 2-thiazolines.
Methods:
Amino alcohols were condensed with nitriles in a sealed tube under solvent-free and metal-
free conditions.
Results:
Our procedure appears to be highly eco-efficient and promotes quantitative access to 2-oxazolines
and 2-thiazolines using simple and minimum manipulation.
Conclusion:
This simple approach allows high conversion for different nitriles yielded from 78 to
99% and easy isolation of the targeted products without further purification. To the best of our
knowledge, our procedure is the most efficient and fast method reported to date in terms of chemical
yields, number of steps, and atom economy.

Abstract
A general procedure for the synthesis of 2-substituted tetrahydro-1,3-thiazepines by MW-assisted cyclization of 4-thioamidobutanols is presented. The acyclic precursors were prepared in high overall yields by an expeditious three-step diacylation/thionation/deprotection sequence from 4-aminobutanol. Microwave-assisted ring closure of 4-thioamido alcohols promoted by trimethylsilyl polyphosphate (PPSE) in solvent-free conditions allowed for the synthesis of several hitherto unreported seven-membered iminothioethers bearing 2-aryl, alkenyl, aralkyl and alkyl substituents. The cyclodehydration reaction is likely to involve an SN2-type displacement and affords good to excellent yields of the desired heterocycles in very short reaction times.

Abstract
A highly enantioselective Henry reaction of β,γ-unsaturated α-ketoesters with nitromethane in water by virtue of chiral copper complexes has been developed. A series of unsaturated β-nitro-α-hydroxy esters bearing tetrasubstituted carbon stereocenters were obtained exclusively with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities. This method could avoid tedious anaerobic anhydrous manipulation and reduce the environmental pollution caused by organic solvents.

Abstract
Tridentate monoanionic ligands known as "pincers" have gained a prominent place as ligands for transition metals and, more recently, for main-group metals and lanthanides. They have been widely employed as ancillary ligands for metal complexes studied inter alia in bond activation steps relevant to catalytic processes. The central formally anionic aryl or heteroaryl unit acts as an "anchor" in the coordination to the metal, which kinetically stabilizes the resulting complexes. Their stability, activity, and reactivity can be tuned by subtle modifications of substitution patterns on the pincer ligand or by modifying the donor atoms. The challenges in pincer ligand design for enantioselective catalysis have been met by their assembly from rigid heterocycles and chiral ligating units in the "wingtip" positions, which generally contain the stereochemical information. The resulting well-defined geometry and shape of the reactive sector of the molecular catalyst favor orientational control of the substrates. On the other hand, the kinetic stability allows reduced catalyst loadings. Recently, a new generation of tridentate anionic N(∧)N(∧)N pincer ligands has been developed which give rise to highly enantioselective transformations. Their applications in asymmetric catalysis have focused primarily on the asymmetric Nozaki-Hiyama-Kishi coupling of aldehydes with halogenated hydrocarbons as well as Lewis acid catalysis involving enantioselective electrophilic attack onto metal-activated β-keto esters, oxindoles, and related substrates. These include highly selective protocols for Friedel-Crafts alkylations with Michael acceptors, electrophilic fluorinations, trifluoromethylations, azidations, and alkylations and subsequent transformations. Increasingly, these stereodirecting ligands are being employed in other types of transformations, including hydrosilylations, cyclopropanations, and epoxidations. The stability and well-defined nature of the molecular catalysts have made them attractive targets for mechanistic studies into a wide range of these transformations, thus providing the type of insight required for a more rational approach to catalyst development. This Account reviews work performed by us and other groups in the field and places it into perspective in relation to general research efforts in enantioselective catalysis.

Abstract
Achieving dual stereocontrol in asymmetric reactions using a single enantiomer for the building of the chiral catalyst or auxiliary is a very important goal in enantioselective synthesis as it eliminates the need for having available the two enantiomers of the auxiliary or catalyst designed. Recent strategies and advances towards this goal during the last four years will be discussed throughout this review.
