Abstract
The control of noncarbon stereogenic centers is of profound importance owing to their enormous interest in bioactive compounds and chiral catalyst or ligand design for enantioselective synthesis. Despite various elegant approaches have been achieved for construction of S-, P-, Si- and B-stereocenters over the past decades, the catalyst-controlled strategies to govern the formation of N-stereogenic compounds have garnered less attention. Here, we disclose the first organocatalytic approach for efficient access to a wide range of nitrogen-stereogenic compounds through a desymmetrization approach. Intriguingly, the pro-chiral remote diols, which are previously not well addressed with enantiocontrol, are well differentiated by potent chiral carbene-bound acyl azolium intermediates. Preliminary studies shed insights on the critical importance of the ionic hydrogen bond (IHB) formed between the dimer aggregate of diols to afford the chiral N-oxide products that feature a tetrahedral nitrogen as the sole stereogenic element with good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. Notably, the chiral N-oxide products could offer an attractive strategy for chiral ligand design and discovery of potential antibacterial agrochemicals.

Abstract
Rhodium(III)-catalyzed enantioselective C-H activation has emerged as a powerful tool for assembling enabling chiral molecules. However, this approach is significantly hampered by the cumbersome synthetic routes for preparing chiral rhodium catalysts. In sharp contrast, we herein report on an electrochemical domino catalysis system that exploits an achiral Cp*-rhodium catalyst along with an easily accessible chiral Brønsted base for an enantioselective C-H activation/annulation reaction of alkenes by benzoic acids. Our strategy offers an environmentally benign and most user-friendly approach for assembling synthetically useful chiral phthalides in good enantioselectivity, employing electricity as the sustainable oxidant.

Abstract
A highly efficient and straightforward one-pot synthesis of diversely substituted 3,4-dihydroquinazolines and quinazolin-4(3H)-ones has been achieved through a domino three-component assembly reaction of arenediazonium salts, nitriles, and bifunctional aniline derivatives. This new protocol involves three C-N bond formations through the initial formation of N-arylnitrilium intermediates from arenediazonium salts and nitriles, followed by the sequential nucleophilic addition and cyclization reactions with bifunctional anilines, leading to such N-heterocyclic compounds of biological and pharmacological importance. This method offers a simple, expedient, and robust approach with the use of amenable and easily accessible reactants/reagents under metal-free mild conditions, good functional group tolerance, and high efficiency. The synthetic applications were also demonstrated by derivatization of the products obtained from these processes and syntheses of a diverse range of valuable polycyclic N-heterocycles.

Abstract
Macrolactones exhibit distinct conformational and configurational properties and are widely found in natural products, medicines, and agrochemicals. Up to now, the major effort for macrolactonization is directed toward identifying suitable carboxylic acid/alcohol coupling reagents to address the challenges associated with macrocyclization, wherein the stereochemistry of products is usually controlled by the substrate's inherent chirality. It remains largely unexplored in using catalysts to govern both macrolactone formation and stereochemical control. Here, we disclose a non-enzymatic organocatalytic approach to construct macrolactones bearing chiral planes from achiral substrates. Our strategy utilizes N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) as a potent acylation catalyst that simultaneously mediates the macrocyclization and controls planar chirality during the catalytic process. Macrolactones varying in ring sizes from sixteen to twenty members are obtained with good-to-excellent yields and enantiomeric ratios. Our study shall open new avenues in accessing macrolactones with various stereogenic elements and ring structures by using readily available small-molecule catalysts.

Abstract
Herein, we report the asymmetric Ru/cinchonine dual catalysis that provides straightforward access to enantioselective synthesis of C-3 substituted phthalides via tandem C-H activation/Michael addition cascade. The use of readily accessible and less expensive [RuCl2(p-cym)]2 and cinchonine catalyst for the one-pot assembly of chiral phthalides greatly overcomes the present trend of using highly sophisticated catalysts. The developed method provides access to both enantiomers of a product using pseudoenantiomeric cinchona alkaloids as catalysts streamlining the synthesis of phthalide in both the optically active forms.

Abstract
A nickel-catalyzed asymmetric Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of racemic 3-bromo-phthalides and arylboronic acids was realized for the synthesis of diverse chiral 3-aryl-phthalides in moderate to excellent reaction yields. The reaction proceeded in a stereoconvergent manner and high enantioselectivities were observed for most examined examples. A number of functional groups like aldehyde, ester and bromide were well tolerated. Heteroaromatic boronic acids were also competent coupling partners in this reaction.

Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations (M06-2X) have been employed to disclose the mechanisms and regio- and stereo-selectivities of the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed reaction of 2-benzothiazolimines and α-chloroaldehydes. The preferred mechanism is initiated by the nucleophilic attack of NHC on α-chloroaldehyde (first step), followed by 1,2-proton transfer which was assisted by the Brønsted acid DABCO·H+ to generate the Breslow intermediate (second step). The cleavage of the C-Cl bond (third step) and deprotonation (fourth step) form the enolate intermediate. This further reacts with 2-benzothiazolimine which leads to the formation of a new C-C bond (fifth step). Subsequent cyclization takes place via the formation of a new C-N bond (sixth step). Catalyst regeneration completes the whole catalytic cycle and affords the final product (seventh step). The DFT results indicate that the fifth step determines the stereochemistry of the reaction and leads to benzothiazolopyrimidinone with the SS configuration, which agrees well with experimental observations. Intramolecular cyclization is found to be the regioselectivity-determining step, for which the [4+2] annulation pathway is more preferred than that via [2+2] annulation, which again agrees well with experimental observations. Based on the mechanism proposed, the origins of regio- and stereoselectivities have also been investigated by performing distortion/interaction, natural bond orbital (NBO) and non-covalent interaction (NCI) analyses. The mechanistic insights gained in this work should be helpful in the rational design of potential catalysts for analogous reactions.

Abstract
We have provided a critical review that focuses on key developments in the area of 3-substituted phthalides and their role in the development of important biologically active natural products. 3-Substituted phthalides are vital molecules owing to their fascinating biological activity. The scope, isolation, and characterization of various naturally occurring racemic and chiral 3-substituted phthalides have been covered. We have put significant emphasis on recently developed research methodologies for the synthesis of racemic and chiral 3-substituted phthalides. These newer approaches are essential for the development of newer and elegant strategies for the synthesis of phthalide-based or similar molecular architecture with broader substrate scope and higher stereoselectivities. Also, we have discussed the application of 3-substituted phthalides as a precursor for the synthesis of natural products and their analogs. We have provided contextual information on the chemistry of 3-substituted phthalides and their significance in natural product synthesis.![]()

Abstract
An efficient quinidine-based phase-transfer-catalyzed enantioselective cascade oxa-Michael-cyclization reaction of hydroxylamine with various β-carboxy-substituted α,β-unsaturated ketones has been achieved for the preparation of chiral carboxy-substituted 2-isoxazolines. This cascade reaction provided the desired products in good yields (up to 98%) with excellent enantioselectivities (91-96% ee). In addition, the cascade reaction was effectively applied to the first catalytic asymmetric synthesis of the herbicide (S)-methiozolin.

Abstract
An enantioselective organocatalytic strategy, combining Brønsted base and N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis in a unique manner, is demonstrated for a concise construction of the privileged cyclopenta[b]benzofuran scaffold, present in many bioactive compounds having both academic and commercial interests. The reaction concept relies on an intramolecular one-pot double cyclization involving a cycle-specific enantioselective Michael addition followed by a benzoin condensation of ortho-substituted cinnamaldehydes. Cyclopenta[b]benzofurans were achieved in moderate to good yields, with excellent stereoselectivities. A proof of principle for a diastereodivergent variation is demonstrated through the synthesis of cyclopenta[b]benzofurans containing two contiguous aromatic substituents in a substitution pattern present in commercial and natural compounds. Furthermore, several transformations have been performed, demonstrating the synthetic utility of the products. Finally, insights into the activation mode and stereoindution models are presented for this new synthetic strategy.

Abstract
A general and enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed lactonization of simple enals and α-ketoesters has been discovered using a new ternary cooperative catalytic system. The highly selective annulation was achieved by using a combination of a chiral NHC, a hydrogen-bond donor, and a metal salt, facilitating self-assembly of the reactive partners. A proposed model for this new mode of NHC chiral relay catalysis is supported by experimental and computational mechanistic studies.

Abstract
The research in the field of asymmetric carbene organic catalysis has primarily focused on the activation of carbon atoms in non-aromatic scaffolds. Here we report a reaction mode of carbene catalysis that allows for aromatic aldehyde activation and remote oxygen atom functionalization. The addition of a carbene catalyst to the aldehyde moiety of 2-hydroxyl aryl aldehyde eventually enables dearomatization and remote OH activation. The catalytic process generates a type of carbene-derived intermediate with an oxygen atom as the reactive centre. Inexpensive achiral urea co-catalyst works cooperatively with the carbene catalyst, leading to consistent enhancement of the reaction enantioselectivity. Given the wide presence of aromatic moieties and heteroatoms in natural products and synthetic functional molecules, we expect our reaction mode to significantly expand the power of carbene catalysis in asymmetric chemical synthesis.

Abstract
An efficient method was developed to synthesize ferrocene-based bifunctional amine-thioureas bearing multiple hydrogen-bonding donors. Asymmetric Michael addition of acetylacetone to nitroolefins catalyzed by these novel bifunctional catalysts affords the Michael adducts in high yield and moderate to excellent enantioselectivities. Multiple hydrogen-bonds play an important role in accelerating the reaction.

Abstract
An enantioselective N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed β-protonation through the orchestration of three distinct organocatalysts has been developed. This cooperative catalyst system enhances both yield and selectivity, compared to only the NHC-catalyzed process. This new method allows for the efficient conversion of a large scope of aryl-oxobutenoates to highly enantioenriched succinate derivatives and demonstrates the benefits of combining different activation modes in organocatalysis.
