Abstract
Various structural elements of the Cinchona alkaloid dimers are interrogated to establish a structure-enantioselectivity relationship (SER) in three different halocyclization reactions. SER for chlorocyclizations of a 1,1-disubstituted alkenoic acid, a 1,1-disubstituted alkeneamide, and a trans-1,2-disubstituted alkeneamide showed variable sensitivities to linker rigidity and polarity, aspects of the alkaloid structure, and the presence of two or only one alkaloid side group defining the catalyst pocket. The conformational rigidity of the linker-ether connections was probed via DFT calculations on the methoxylated models, uncovering especially high barriers to ether rotation out of plane in the arene systems that include the pyridazine ring. These linkers are also found in the catalysts with the highest enantioinduction. The diversity of the SER results suggested that the three apparently analogous test reactions may proceed by significantly different mechanisms. Based on these findings, a stripped-down analogue of (DHQD)2PYDZ, termed "(trunc)2PYDZ", was designed, synthesized, and evaluated, showing modest but considerable asymmetric induction in the three test reactions, with the best performance on the 1,1-disubstituted alkeneamide cyclization. This first effort to map out the factors essential to effective stereocontrol and reaction promotion offers guidance for the simplified design and systematic refinement of new, selective organocatalysts.

Abstract
Imidazoline is an important scaffold in organic synthesis and a pharmacophore in medicinal chemistry. We apply basic imines as nucleophiles for the catalytic asymmetric chloroiminocyclization to furnish tetrasubstituted stereocenter-containing imidazolines in excellent yields and enantioselectivities. The reaction can be conducted in the polar solvent acetonitrile under concentrated reaction conditions.

Abstract
The halolactonization reaction provides rapid access to densely functionalized lactones from unsaturated carboxylic acids. The endo/exo regioselectivity of this cyclization reaction is primarily determined by the electronic stabilization of alkene substituents, thus making it inherently dependent on substrate structures. Therefore this method often affords one type of halolactone regioisomer only. Herein, we introduce a simple and efficient method for regioselectivity-switchable bromolactonization reactions mediated by HFIP solvent. Two sets of reaction conditions were developed, each forming endo-products or exo-products in excellent regioselectivity. A combination of computational and experimental mechanistic studies not only confirmed the crucial role of HFIP, but also revealed the formation of endo-products under kinetic control and exo-products under thermodynamic control. This study paves the way for future work on the use of perfluorinated solvents to dictate reaction outcomes in organic synthesis.

Abstract
A catalyst-controlled enantiodivergent bromolactonization of olefinic acids has been developed. Quinine-derived amino-amides bearing the same chiral core but different achiral aryl substituents were used as the catalysts. Switching the methoxy substituent in the aryl amide system from meta- to ortho-position results in a complete switch in asymmetric induction to afford the desired lactone in good enantioselectivity and yield. Mechanistic studies, including chemical experiments and density functional theory calculations, reveal that the differences in steric and electronic effects of the catalyst substituent alter the reaction mechanism.

Abstract
The halolactonization reaction is one of the most common electrophilic addition reactions to alkenes. The mechanism is generally viewed as a two-step pathway, which involves the formation of an ionic intermediate, in most cases a haliranium ion. Recently, an alternative concerted mechanism was proposed, in which the nucleophile of the reaction played a key role in the rate determining step by forming a pre-polarized complex with the alkene. This pathway was coined the nucleophile-assisted alkene activation (NAAA) mechanism. Metadynamics simulations on a series of model halolactonization reactions were used to obtain the full dynamic trajectory from reactant to product and investigate the explicit role of the halogen source and solvent molecules in the mechanism. The results in this work ratify the occasional preference of a concerted mechanism over the classic two-step transformation under specific reaction conditions. Nevertheless, as the stability of both the generated substrate cation and counter-anion increase, a transition towards the classic two-step mechanism was observed. NCI analyses on the transition states revealed that the activating role of the nucleophile is independent of the formation and stability of the intermediate. Additionally, the dynamic insights obtained from the metadynamics simulations and NCI analyses employed in this work, unveiled the presence of syn-directing noncovalent interactions, such as hydrogen bonding, between the alkenoic acid and the halogen source, which rationalized the experimentally observed diastereoselectivities. Explicit noncovalent interactions between the reactants and a protic solvent or basic additive are able to disrupt these syn-directing noncovalent interactions, affecting the diastereoselective outcome of the reaction.

By this method, a variety of chiral trifluoromethylthiolated 2,5-disubstituted oxazolines were obtained in good yields with high enantioselectivities. This work not only provides a new pathway for the synthesis of chiral oxazolines, but also expands the library of chiral trifluoromethylthiolated molecules.

Abstract
Cyclic carbamates are a common feature of small-molecule therapeutics, offering a constrained hydrogen bond acceptor that is both polar and sterically small. Methods for their preparation most often focus first on amino alcohol synthesis and then reaction with phosgene or its equivalent. This report describes an enantioselective synthesis of cyclic carbamates in which carbon dioxide engages an unsaturated basic amine, facilitated by a bifunctional organocatalyst designed to stabilize a carbamic acid intermediate while activating it toward subsequent enantioselective carbon-oxygen bond formation. Six-membered cyclic carbamates are prepared in good yield with high levels of enantioselection, as constrained 1,3-amino alcohols featuring a chiral tertiary alcohol carbon. Spectroscopic analysis (NMR, DOSY) of various substrate-reagent combinations provides insight into the dominant species under the reaction conditions. Two peculiar requirements were identified to achieve highest consistency: a "Goldilocks" amount of water and the use of a noncrystalline form of the ligand. These atypical features of the final protocol notwithstanding, a diverse range of products could be prepared. Their functionalizations illustrate the versatility of the carbamates as precursors to enantioenriched small molecules.

Abstract
Enantioselective bromolactonization of trisubstituted olefinic acids producing synthetically useful chiral lactones with two contiguous asymmetric centers has remained mainly unexplored except for the 6-exo cyclization mode. In this work, the 5-exo- and 6-endo modes of bromocyclization of trisubstituted olefinic acids were enabled for the first time using N-bromosuccinimide and a pyridyl phosphoramide catalyst. The utility of the resulting bromolactones was demonstrated by transformations harnessing reactive alkyl bromide moieties without losing stereochemical information. Optimization studies and control experiments revealed that the basicity of pyridine moieties and presence of N-H protons in the phosphoramide species strongly affected both the reactivity and enantioselectivity parameters.

Abstract
Halofunctionalization methods enable the vicinal difunctionalization of alkenes with heteroatom nucleophiles and halogen moieties. As a fundamental transformation in organic synthesis, the catalytic asymmetric variants have only recently been reported. In sharp contrast to the asymmetric halocyclization of simple alkenes which involves a nucleophile-assisted alkene activation process, the asymmetric halofunctionalization of enones developed by our laboratory features an electrophile-assisted 1,4-addition pathway. Our work in this area has resulted in the development of several different types of regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective processes, including inter- and intramolecular haloaminations, haloetherifications, and haloazidations. The scope, updated mechanism, limitations, and future perspective of these reactions are discussed.

Abstract
We report a chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed bromocyclization/regiodivergent reaction of racemic intermediates sequence, which is enabled by anchimeric oxygen borrowing. Different types of alkenes are applicable, and both enantiomers of the bromohydrin products were obtained in generally excellent yields and enantioselectivities. In addition, an example of enantioconvergent synthesis from the two isomeric products is presented.

Abstract
A general protocol is described for inducing enantioselective halolactonizations of unsaturated carboxylic acids using novel bifunctional organic catalysts derived from a chiral binaphthalene scaffold. Bromo- and iodolactonization reactions of diversely substituted, unsaturated carboxylic acids proceed with high degrees of enantioselectivity, regioselectivity, and diastereoselectivity. Notably, these BINOL-derived catalysts are the first to induce the bromo- and iodolactonizations of 5-alkyl-4( Z)-olefinic acids via 5- exo mode cyclizations to give lactones in which new carbon-halogen bonds are created at a stereogenic center with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities. Iodolactonizations of 6-substituted-5( Z)-olefinic acids also occur via 6- exo cyclizations to provide δ-lactones with excellent enantioselectivities. Several notable applications of this halolactonization methodology were developed for desymmetrization, kinetic resolution, and epoxidation of Z-alkenes. The utility of these reactions is demonstrated by their application to a synthesis of precursors of the F-ring subunit of kibdelone C and to the shortest catalytic, enantioselective synthesis of (+)-disparlure reported to date.
