Abstract
Strategic design for the construction of contiguous tetrasubstituted carbon centers represents a daunting challenge in synthetic organic chemistry. Herein, we report a combined experimental and computational investigation aimed at developing catalytic aerobic carbooxygenation, involving the intramolecular addition of tertiary radicals to geminally disubstituted alkenes, followed by aerobic oxygenation. This reaction provides a straightforward route to various α,α,β,β-tetrasubstituted γ-lactones, which can be readily transformed into hexasubstituted γ-lactones through allylation/translactonization. Computational analysis reveals that the key mechanistic foundation for achieving the developed aerobic carbooxygenation involves the design of endothermic (energetically uphill) C-C bond formation followed by exothermic (energetically downhill) oxygenation. Furthermore, we highlight a unique fluorine-induced stereoelectronic effect that stabilizes the endothermic stereodetermining transition state.

Abstract
Lactones represent a class of fundamental structural motifs ubiquitous in nature, holding significance across diverse scientific domains such as pharmaceuticals, natural products, drug discovery, and industry. Despite their simplicity, the synthesis of lactones has garnered considerable interest due to their pivotal roles. Gold, traditionally regarded as a noble metal, has emerged as an efficient catalyst, challenging conventional perceptions. The utilization of gold in lactone synthesis has captivated researchers, leading to the development of numerous effective methodologies. Motivated by this, we present a comprehensive compilation of reports on the gold-catalyzed synthesis of lactones, encompassing literature till date.

Abstract
Sesquiterpene lactones (SL) represent a class of secondary metabolites found in the Asteraceae family, notable for their unique structures. The SL α-santonin (1) and its derivatives are worthy of mention due to their diverse biological properties. Additionally, 4H-chromenes and 4H-chromones are appealing frameworks holding the capability to be used as structural motifs for new drugs. Furthermore, unambiguous structural elucidation is crucial for developing novel compounds for diverse applications. In this context, it is common to find in the literature molecules erroneously assigned. Therefore, the use of quantum mechanical calculations to simulate NMR chemical shifts has emerged as a valuable strategy. In this work, we conceived the synthesis of two halogenated 4H-chromenediones derived from photosantonic acid (2), a photoproduct arising from irradiation of α-santonin (1) in the ultraviolet region. The structure of the chlorinated and brominated products was determined by NMR analysis, with the aid of quantum mechanical calculations at the B3LYP/6-311 + G(2d,p)//M062x/6-31 + G(d,p) level of theory. All analyses were in agreement and led to the assignment of the brominated 4H-chromene-2,7-dione as (3S,3aS,5aR,9bS)-5a-(2-bromopropan-2-yl)-3-methyl-3,3a,5,5a,8,9b-hexahydro-4H-furo[2,3-f]chromene-2,7-dione (11b) and of the chlorinated 4H-chromene-2,7-dione as (3S,3aS,5aR,9bS)-5a-(2-chloropropan-2-yl)-3-methyl-3,3a,5,5a,8,9b-hexahydro-4H-furo[2,3-f]chromene-2,7-dione (12b). The diastereoselectivities of the reactions were explained based on products and intermediates formation energy calculated using B3LYP/6-31 + G(d,p) as the level of theory. Structures 11b and 12b were identified as the thermodynamic and kinetic products of the reaction among all candidates. Consequently, the strategy utilized in this study is robust and successfully illustrates the use of quantum mechanical calculations in the structural elucidation of new compounds with potential applications as novel drugs or products.

Abstract
Polysubstituted 2-oxopyrrolidines bearing at least two contiguous stereocenters constitute the core of several pharmaceuticals, including clausenamide (antidementia). Here, we describe a flexible annulation strategy, which unites succinic anhydride and 1,3-azadienes to produce allylic 2-oxopyrrolidines bearing contiguous stereocenters. The approach is chemoselective, efficient, modular, scalable, and diastereoselective. The scalable nature of the reactions offers the opportunity for post-diversification, leading to incorporation of motifs with either known pharmaceutical value or that permit subsequent conversion to medicinally relevant entities.

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
An efficient enantioselective synthesis of γ-chiral α-spiro-γ-lactones, which are important building blocks for pharmaceuticals, was achieved via BINOL-derived chiral bifunctional sulfide-catalyzed bromolactonizations of α-allyl carboxylic acids containing either hetero- or carbocyclic structures. Transformations of the resultant α-spiro-type bromolactonization product were examined to obtain optically active γ-functionalized α-spiro-γ-lactones. The utility of this catalytic system was also demonstrated in the asymmetric synthesis of α,α-diaryl- and dialkyl-substituted γ-lactones.

Abstract
Halolactonization of alkenoic acids enables the construction of oxygen-heterocycles via intramolecular halonium-induced nucleophilic addition. Although the literature is currently inundated with halolactonizations of 5-aryl-4(E)-pentenoic acids that predictably afford the 6-endo cyclization adducts, methods that reliably alter the innate regioselectivity bias to instead deliver the thermodynamically less favored 5-exo cyclization products are relatively rare. Here, we attempt to bridge this gap and have found mild conditions for contra-thermodynamic halolactonization of lactam-tethered 5-aryl-4(E)-pentenoic acids that lead to the formation of trans-fused lactam-γ-lactones. The natural proclivity for these 5-aryl-4(E)-pentenoic acids to undergo 6-endo cyclization is overridden and 5-exo-trig cyclization predominates. The success of the approach hinges on the use of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as the solvent and N-methylmorpholine oxide as the catalyst. The lactam-lactone products are synthesized in high diastereoselectivity, modularity, and chemoselectivity. Notably, most of the bicycles contain one benzylic quaternary stereocenter as well as an α-alkoxy quaternary stereocenter. The contra-thermodynamic halolactonization of lactam-tethered 5-aryl-4(E)-pentenoic acids, under solvent- and catalyst-controlled conditions, has facilitated the efficient and stereocontrolled synthesis of halogenated fused γ-lactone-lactams.![]()

Abstract
The enantiomeric pure and natural (+)-Lactones (C ≤ 14) with aromas obtained from fruits and milk are considered flavoring compounds. The flavoring value is related to the lactones' ring size and chain length, which blend in varying concentrations to produce different stone-fruit flavors. The nature-identical and enantiomeric pure (+)-lactones are only produced through whole-cell biotransformation of yeast. The industrially important γ-decalactone and δ-decalactone are produced by a four-step aerobic-oxidation of ricinoleic acid (RA) following the lactonization mechanism. Recently, metabolic engineering strategies have opened up new possibilities for increasing productivity. Another strategy for increasing yield is to immobilize the RA and remove lactones from the broth regularly. Besides flavor impact, γ-, δ-, ε-, ω-lactones of the carbon chain (C8-C12), the macro-lactones and their derivatives are vital in pharmaceuticals and healthcare. These analogues are isolated from natural sources or commercially produced via biotransformation and chemical synthesis processes for medicinal use or as active pharmaceutical ingredients. The various approaches to biotransformation have been discussed in this review to generate more prospects from a commercial point of view. Finally, this work will be regarded as a magical brick capable of containing both traditional and genetic engineering technology while contributing to a wide range of commercial applications.

Abstract
Tf2NH-assisted BINAM-derived thiophosphoramide catalysis has been accomplished for the enantioselective oxysulfenylation of o-vinylanilides with N-(aryl/alkylthio)imides. The developed reaction offers access to diverse substituted aryl/alkylthio tethered 3,1-benzoxazines in excellent yields and enantiomeric ratios. Furthermore, synthetic applications of benzoxazines and aryl/alkylthio moieties and a transition state model for the observed enantioselectivity are also discussed.

Abstract
The catalytic enantioselective desymmetrizing bromoaminocyclization of prochiral cyclohexa-1,4-dienes has been achieved by using chiral anion phase-transfer catalysis, providing a range of enantioenriched cis-3a-arylhydroindoles bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter in good yields (up to 78%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee). Furthermore, the potential application of this methodology to natural product total synthesis was demonstrated by the asymmetric synthesis of (+)-Mesembrane.

Asymmetric halolactonizations are powerful methods for the syntheses of chiral lactones. Catalytic and highly enantioselective halolactonizations of α-allyl carboxylic acids, however, continue to present a formidable challenge. Herein, we report the chiral bifunctional sulfide-catalyzed desymmetrizing bromolactonizations of α,α-diallyl carboxylic acids. These reactions efficiently produced chiral α-quaternary lactones and esters.

Abstract
Site-specific incorporation of non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) into proteins has emerged as a universal tool for systems bioengineering at the interface of chemistry, biology, and technology. The diversification of the repertoire of the genetic code has been achieved for amino acids with long and/or bulky side chains equipped with various bioorthogonal tags and useful spectral probes. Although ncAAs with relatively small side chains and similar properties are of great interest to biophysics, cell biology, and biomaterial science, they can rarely be incorporated into proteins. To address this gap, we report the engineering of PylRS variants capable of incorporating an entire library of aliphatic "small-tag" ncAAs. In particular, we performed mutational studies of a specific PylRS, designed to incorporate the shortest non-bulky ncAA (S-allyl-l-cysteine) possible to date and based on this knowledge incorporated aliphatic ncAA derivatives. In this way, we have not only increased the number of translationally active "small-tag" ncAAs, but also determined key residues responsible for maintaining orthogonality, while engineering the PylRS for these interesting substrates. Based on the known plasticity of PylRS toward different substrates, our approach further expands the reassignment capacities of this enzyme toward aliphatic amino acids with smaller side chains endowed with valuable functionalities.

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.

Abstract
δ-Valerolactone derivatives are formed by cyanide-catalyzed ring-transformation of cyclic α-hydroxy-β-oxoesters. This unprecedented reaction defines a new synthetic methodology, and the products are obtained in up to quantitative yields. Several alkyl substitutions as well as different ester residues are tolerated. Furthermore, benzo- and heteroarene-annulated starting materials are converted without problems. As an additional benefit, the starting materials are straightforwardly accessed by cerium-catalyzed aerobic α-hydroxylation of readily available β-oxoesters.

Abstract
Reported here is the room-temperature metal-free iodoarene-catalyzed oxyamination of unactivated alkenes. In this process, the alkenes are difunctionalized by the oxygen atom of the amide group and the nitrogen in an exogenous HNTs2 molecule. This mild and open-air reaction provided an efficient synthesis to N-bistosyl-substituted 5-imino-2-tetrahydrofuranyl methanamine derivatives, which are important motifs in drug development and biological studies. Mechanistic study based on experiments and density functional theory calculations showed that this transformation proceeds via activation of the substrate alkene by an in situ generated cationic iodonium(III) intermediate, which is subsequently attacked by an oxygen atom (instead of nitrogen) of amides to form a five-membered ring intermediate. Finally, this intermediate undergoes an SN2 reaction by NTs2 as the nucleophile to give the oxygen and nitrogen difunctionalized 5-imino-2-tetrahydrofuranyl methanamine product. An asymmetric variant of the present alkene oxyamination using chiral iodoarenes as catalysts also gave promising results for some of the substrates.

Abstract
In organic synthesis, due to their high electrophilicity and leaving group properties, halogens play pivotal roles in the activation and structural derivations of organic compounds. Recently, cyclizations induced by halogen groups that allow the production of diverse targets and the structural reorganization of organic molecules have attracted significant attention from synthetic chemists. Electrophilic halogen atoms activate unsaturated and saturated hydrocarbon moieties by generating halonium intermediates, followed by the attack of carbon-containing, nitrogen-containing, oxygen-containing, and sulfur-containing nucleophiles to give highly functionalized carbocycles and heterocycles. New transformations of halogenated organic molecules that can control the formation and stereoselectivity of the products, according to the difference in the size and number of halogen atoms, have recently been discovered. These unique cyclizations may possibly be used as efficient synthetic strategies with future advances. In this review, innovative reactions controlled by halogen groups are discussed as a new concept in the field of organic synthesis.

Abstract
Halogen bonding has received a significant increase in attention in the past 20 years. An important part of this interest has centered on catalytic applications of halogen bonding. Halogen bond (XB) catalysis is still a developing field in organocatalysis, although XB catalysis has outgrown its proof of concept phase. The start of this year witnessed the publication of the first example of a purely XB-based enantioselective catalytic reaction. While the selectivity can be improved upon, there are already plenty of examples in which halogen bonds, among other interactions, play a crucial role in the outcome of highly enantioselective reactions. This paper will give an overview of the current state of the use of XBs in catalytic stereoselective processes.

A BINOL-derived chiral bifunctional sulfide catalyst bearing a phenylurea moiety was applied to enantioselective bromoaminocyclization reactions of 2-allylaniline derivatives, which provide optically active 2-substituted indoline products as important motifs for biologically active compounds. A protecting group on the nitrogen of the 2-allylaniline substrate was carefully optimized, and highly enantioselective reactions were achieved by employing the p-biphenylsulfonyl-protected substrates. The origin of the good level of enantioselectivity for the present bromoaminocyclization was also investigated on the basis of DFT calculations. The resultant optically active 2-(bromomethyl)indoline products could be transformed to various 2-substituted indolines with no loss of the optical purity.

Abstract
The catalytic asymmetric halocyclization of alkene is a powerful and straightforward strategy for the synthesis of chiral heterocyclic compounds. Herein, an effective approach to chiral benzoxazine derivatives through organocatalyzed chlorocyclization of o-vinylanilides was reported. This method provides facile access to a series of chiral benzoxazines in good to excellent yields (up to 99% yield) and with high-level enantiocontrol (up to 92% ee).
