Abstract
Strategies that fully convert available racemic substrates into valuable enantioenriched products are urgently needed in organic synthesis. Reported herein is the first parallel kinetic asymmetric transformation of racemic cyclohexadienones. Racemic cyclohexadienones are first diastereoselectively converted into a new pair of racemic transient dienol intermediates, which are then parallel protonated by chiral phosphoric acid to deliver two sets of hydroindole products bearing a quaternary stereocenter with generally excellent enantioselectivity.

Abstract
A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric tandem Heck and carbonylation of bisallyl-phosphine oxides has been developed. This desymmetrization process provided an efficient route to the simultaneous synthesis of a chiral P-stereogenic center and a chiral quaternary carbon stereocenter in good yields with good diastereo- and enantioselectivities.

Abstract
While natural terpenoid cyclases generate complex terpenoid structures via cationic mechanisms, alternative radical cyclization pathways are underexplored. The metal-catalysed H-atom transfer reaction (M-HAT) offers an attractive means for hydrofunctionalizing olefins, providing access to terpenoid-like structures. Artificial metalloenzymes offer a promising strategy for introducing M-HAT reactivity into a protein scaffold. Here we report our efforts towards engineering an artificial radical cyclase (ARCase), resulting from anchoring a biotinylated [Co(Schiff-base)] cofactor within an engineered chimeric streptavidin. After two rounds of directed evolution, a double mutant catalyses a radical cyclization to afford bicyclic products with a cis-5-6-fused ring structure and up to 97% enantiomeric excess. The involvement of a histidine ligation to the Co cofactor is confirmed by crystallography. A time course experiment reveals a cascade reaction catalysed by the ARCase, combining a radical cyclization with a conjugate reduction. The ARCase exhibits tolerance towards variations in the dienone substrate, highlighting its potential to access terpenoid scaffolds.

Abstract
Although various types of asymmetric cyclization reactions of 1,6-enynes have been established, simple asymmetric reductive cyclization remains underdeveloped. In this study, the enantioselective reductive cyclization of alkynyl-tethered cyclohexadienones (1,6-enynes) has been developed via a chiral pincer rhodium catalyst, affording cis-hydrobenzofurans and cis-hydroindoles with high enantioselectivities (90-99% ee). Furthermore, several synthetic applications and preliminary inhibitory activity studies against SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro are presented.

Abstract
Efficient catalytic methods that allow the use of simple and abundant chemical feedstocks for the preparation of synthetically versatile compounds are central to modern synthetic chemistry. Acetylene is a basic feedstock with a remarkable production over one million tons per year, although it is underutilized in the stereoselective synthesis of fine chemicals. Here we report a facile catalytic multicomponent reaction that allows for the enantio- and diastereoselective allylboration of acetylene gas. This process is catalyzed by a chiral copper catalyst, operates without specialized equipment or pressurization, and provides chiral skipped dienes bearing stereodefined and orthogonally functionalized olefins with excellent levels of chemo-, regio-, enantio- and diastereoselectivity. The combined stereochemical features and orthogonal functionalization make the products privileged structural scaffolds to access the complete set of stereoisomers of the chiral skipped diene core through simple enantio- and diastereodivergent pathways. The utility of the method is demonstrated with the enantioselective synthesis of three bioactive natural skipped diene products, namely (+)-Nyasol, (+)-Hinokiresinol and Phorbasin C, and other related synthetically relevant chiral molecules.

Abstract
The reaction of 2,5-cyclohexadienones with methylene-tethered allenylsilane in the presence of Lewis or Brønsted acids leads to a cascade of intramolecular cyclization, yielding stereoselective tricyclic fused 6-5-4 carbocycles featuring a silyl-methylenecyclobutane ring. This transformation is notable for the diastereoselective asymmetric desymmetrization of prochiral dienones, attributed to the axial chirality of allene.

Abstract
Cis-hydrobenzofurans, cis-hydroindoles, and cis-hydrindanes, privileged structural motifs found in numerous biologically active natural and synthetic compounds, are efficiently prepared by a Rh(I)-catalyzed cascade syn-arylation/1,4-addition protocol. This approach starts with the regioselective syn-arylation of the alkyne tethered to 2,5-hexadienone moieties, using a chiral Rh(I) catalyst generated in situ from a chiral bicyclo[2.2.1]hepatadiene ligand L4f. By forging two new carbon-carbon bonds and introducing two chiral centers, the resulting alkenylrhodium species undergoes desymmetrization via an intramolecular 1,4-addition reaction, delivering annulated products with high yields and enantioselectivities.

Abstract
While the Pd(0)-catalyzed cyclization of alkyne-tethered unsaturated carbonyl substrates has been reported, the mechanism has not been well elucidated, and the potential asymmetric version remains to be developed. Here, we disclose that a chiral Pd(0) complex can efficiently promote the desymmetrizative cyclization of alkyne-tethered cyclohexadienones in CH3OH, and the resultant Pd(II) intermediates further undergo an array of tandem coupling reactions, including Suzuki, Sonogashira, and even chemoselective reduction by CH3OH in the absence of additional coupling partners. As a result, a broad spectrum of hydrobenzofuran derivatives, having a tetra- or trisubstituted exo-alkene motif, is constructed with moderate to outstanding enantioselectivity in an exclusive cis-difunctionalization pattern. In addition, this enantioselective protocol can be well expanded to linear alkyne-tethered unsaturated carbonyls, and a new desymmetrizative and asymmetric cyclization/coupling cascade of bis-alkyne-tethered enones is further realized efficiently, furnishing diversely structured frameworks with high stereoselectivity. Moreover, kinetic transformation for various racemic alkyne-tethered enones can be accomplished under similar catalytic conditions, and unusual kinetic reactions by chemoselectively undertaking Suzuki or Sonogashira coupling, or reduction by CH3OH, occur sequentially, finally yielding two types of chiral products, both with high enantioselectivity via either ligand- or substrate-based control. The experimental results demonstrate that the current Pd(0)-based strategy is superior to the classical Pd(II)-catalyzed carbopalladation/cyclization process of the identical substrates with regard to enantioselectivity and synthetic versatility. Moreover, density functional theory calculations are conducted to rationalize the Pd(0)-catalyzed oxidative cyclometalation pathway in the key cyclization step, which leads to the observed cis-difunctionalized products exclusively.

Abstract

The deactivated sulfonyl group determines the site-selectivity of the electrophilic addition via the ipso-attack, while the following S-migration controls the regioselectivity. Some of 2-methylthiobenzo[b]thiophene 1,1-dioxides show fluorescence properties in the solid state and in their solutions.

Abstract
An unprecedented stereoselective route for procuring tetrahydrophenanthren-2(1H)-ones bearing up to five contiguous stereogenic centers has been accomplished. A bifunctional squaramide enables a domino 1,4-/1,4-addition desymmetrization reaction sequence between the newly developed β-nitrostyrene-tethered 2,5-cyclohexadienones and trisubstituted enolizable nucleophiles to provide direct access to the polyfunctionalized hydrophenanthren-2(1H)-ones in excellent enantio- (up to >99%) and diastereoselectivity (up to >20:1). By using a psedoenantiomeric squaramide, the enantiomers of hydrophenanthrene derivatives were also accessed with excellent stereocontrol.

Abstract
The domino cyclization/coupling strategy is one of the most effective methods to produce cyclized and multi-functionalized compounds from olefins, which has attracted huge attention from chemists and biochemists especially for its considerable potential of enantiocontrol. Nowadays, more and more studies are developed to achieve difunctionalization of substituted olefins through an asymmetric domino intramolecular cyclization/cascade reaction, which is still an elegant choice to accomplish several synthetic ideas such as complex natural products and drugs. This review surveys the recent advances in this field through reaction type classification. It might serve as useful knowledge desktop for the community and accelerate their research.

Abstract
The catalytic asymmetric dearomatization (CADA) reaction has proved to be a powerful protocol for rapid assembly of valuable three-dimensional cyclic compounds from readily available planar aromatics. In contrast to the well-studied indoles and naphthols, phenols have been considered challenging substrates for intermolecular CADA reactions due to the combination of strong aromaticity and potential regioselectivity issue over the multiple nucleophilic sites (O, C2 as well as C4). Reported herein are the chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed divergent intermolecular CADA reactions of common phenols with azoalkenes, which deliver the tetrahydroindolone and cyclohexadienone products bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center in good yields with excellent ee values. Notably, simply adjusting the reaction temperature leads to the chemo-divergent intermolecular (3 + 2) and alkylation dearomatization reactions. Moreover, the stereo-divergent synthesis of four possible stereoisomers in a kind has been achieved via changing the sequence of catalyst enantiomers.

Abstract
In this research, a metal-free diastereoselective formal 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of N-2,2,2-trifluoroethylisatin ketimines and cyclopentene-1,3-diones which can efficiently lead to the desymmetrization of cyclopentene-1,3-diones is developed. With the developed protocol, a series of tetracyclic spirooxindoles containing pyrrolidine and cyclopentane subunits can be smoothly obtained with good results (up to 99% yield and 91:9 dr). Furthermore, the methodology can be extended to trifluoromethyl-substituted iminomalonate, and the corresponding formal [3+2] cycloaddition reaction affords bicyclic heterocycles containing fused pyrrolidine and cyclopentane moieties in moderate yields with >20:1 dr. The synthetic potential of the methodology is demonstrated by the scale-up experiment and by versatile transformations of the products.

Abstract
Desymmetrization is an essential method for the synthesis of chiral compounds, particularly chiral biaryls. We have developed an enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral biaryls by desymmetrization using C(sp3)-H activation catalyzed by chiral palladium phosphate. Mechanistic studies show that C-H activation is the rate- and enantiomer-determining step. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of asymmetric desymmetrization of axially chiral compounds by C(sp3)-H activation.

Abstract
A catalyst-controlled divergent synthesis of bridged [3.3.1] bis(indolyl)-oxanes and cis-[6.7] fused bis(indolyl) oxepanes via diastereoselective desymmetrization of bis(indolyl)-cyclohexadienones is presented for the first time. The reaction is highly atom- and step-economic, furnishing sp3-rich functionalized bis(indolyl) derivatives in good to excellent yields with wide substrate scope. The reaction proceeds through Friedel-Crafts alkylation followed by catalyst-controlled selective C-C bond formation/rearrangement. Gram scale synthesis and synthetic utility to generate bis(indolyl) alkaloid-like molecular diversity were also illustrated.

Abstract
The expeditious construction of complex molecules having multiple stereocentres is highly desirable in organic chemistry. In the present communication, we report the development of an organocatalytic asymmetric desymmetrization of prochiral enal-tethered cyclohexadienones via the C3-selective Friedel-Crafts alkylation of indoles triggered by LUMO-lowering iminium activation/HOMO-raising enamine activation. The reaction provides access to bicyclic enones, which further undergo acid-mediated intramolecular annulation from C2-position to afford highly strained cyclohepta[b]indoles with five contiguous stereocentres and three new C-C bonds in excellent enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity.

Abstract
The intermolecular transformation of simple substrates into highly functionalized scaffolds with multiple stereogenic centers is an attractive strategy in modern organic synthesis. Prochiral 2,5-cyclohexadienones, being stable and easily accessible, are privileged key building blocks for the synthesis of complex molecules and bioactive natural products. In particular, p-quinols and p-quinamines are important subclasses of cyclohexadienones, having both nucleophilic and electrophilic sites, and can undergo various intermolecular cascade annulations via formal cycloadditions and other transformations. This article highlights the recent developments of intermolecular transformations on p-quinols and p-quinamines along with plausible reaction mechanisms. We hope that this review will inspire the readers to explore the new potential applications of these unique prochiral molecules.

Abstract
In this work, we have developed an unconventional and highly enantioselective solvent-promoted Rauhut-Currier cyclization of enal-tethered cyclohexadienone by exploiting the reactivity of a simple Jørgensen-Hayashi catalyst through the merging of iminium and enamine activation. This asymmetric desymmetrization reaction has broad substrate scope in good yields with high to excellent enantioselectivity. DFT calculations suggest that the elimination of the alkoxy group is the rate-limiting step and that it proceeds through proton abstraction by solvent instead of a direct 1,3-proton shift.

Abstract
Reported here is a highly enantioselective homoenolate Michael addition/esterification sequence of cyclohexadienone-tethered enals via N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysis, affording the enantiopure cis-hydrobenzofurans, cis-hydroindoles, and cis-hydroindenes. The NHC catalyst bearing a nitro group greatly enhances the stereocontrol, and a bulky N-aryl substituent of the triazolium salt in the catalyst is helpful for inhibiting the further aldol condensation after homoenolate Michael addition. The utility of this protocol is highlighted by a gram-scale experiment and versatile downstream transformations.

Abstract
Cascade or domino reactions serve as a powerful technique for the synthesis of complex organic scaffolds in one pot. Herein, a Cu(II)-catalyzed and silica gel-assisted multicomponent reaction (MCR) between bromoalkyne-tethered cyclohexadienones, amides, and water for the construction of hexahydrobenzofuran-3-carboxamide is developed. The reaction proceeds via a C-N coupling reaction followed by hydrative cyclization of ynamide intermediates. Notably, good to excellent diastereoselectivity is complementary of this reaction.

Abstract
A catalytic [3 + 2]-cycloaddition/Friedel-Crafts alkylative desymmetrization strategy has been developed for the stereoselective construction of linear and bridged polycyclic pyrroles from alkynylcyclohexa-2,5-dienones. This strategy was further explored for the synthesis of 3-arylpyrroles under Brønsted acid catalysis. Reaction is highly chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective and is compatible with wide range of functionalized cyclohexa-2,5-dienones/pyrroles (>51 examples, ≤98% yields). Gram-scale synthesis and synthetic utility of the products have also been demonstrated to showcase the robustness of present method.

Abstract
The construction of multi-stereocenters by a transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction is a major challenge. The catalytic desymmetric functionalization of unactivated alkenes remains largely unexplored. Herein, we disclose -a desymmetric dicarbofunctionalization of 1,6-dienes via a nickel-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling reaction. The leverage of the underdeveloped chiral 8-Quinox enables the Ni-catalyzed desymmetric carbamoylalkylation of both unactivated mono- and disubstituted alkenes to form pyrrolidinone bearing two nonadjacent stereogenic centers in high enantio- and stereoselectivitives with broad functional-group tolerance. The synthetic application of pyrrolidinones allows the rapid access to complex chiral fused-heterocycles.

Abstract
Herein we have reported the palladium(0)-catalyzed decarboxylative oxa-Michael addition/remote α-allylation/1,3- migration of prochiral allyl carbonate-tethered cyclohexadienones in good yields. This unconventional intramolecular rearrangement is triggered by the base-mediated retro-Michael ring-opening reaction (β-elimination) and subsequent syn-selective oxa-Michael addition on the less substituted enone functionality. The generality of tandem decarboxylative allylation was examined with various substrates and in the gram-scale reaction.

Abstract
With a Cu(OTf)2/chiral ferrocenyl P,N-ligand complex as a catalyst, the enantioselective desymmetrization of N-arylmaleimides was successfully realized by taking advantage of the asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of N-2,2,2-trifluoroethylisatin ketimines. A series of structurally diverse F3C-containing octahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrroles, bearing four contiguous carbon stereocenters and one stereogenic chiral C-N axial bond, were obtained with excellent results (≤99% yield, >20:1 dr, and 99% ee).

Abstract
A catalytic asymmetric desymmetrization of cyclohexadienones was accomplished via Van Leusen pyrrole synthesis in the presence of a chiral silver catalyst. The ready access to chiral-fused pyrrole derivatives is attributed to the identification of a suitable isocyanomethyl sulfone surrogate, NasMIC. The current Ag(I)-chiral phosphino-carboamide ligand system can be extended to the kinetic resolution of racemic cyclohexadienones, capitalizing on the differentiated reactivity of chiral quaternary complexes from AgSbF6, chiral ligand (L*), cyclohexadienone, and NasMIC.

Abstract
The desymmetric arylation of prochiral cyclohexadienones with ArZnCl in the presence of an (R)-segphos-rhodium catalyst gave high yields of the corresponding cyclohexenones, which contain a chiral arylated carbon center at the β-position and a chiral all-carbon quaternary center at the γ-position, with high diastereo- and enantioselectivities. This catalytic system was also applied to the arylation of spirocarbocyclic cyclohexadienones and afforded the corresponding cyclohexenones bearing a chiral spiro quaternary carbon with high dr and ee.

Abstract
Herein we have developed the silver-catalyzed electronic- and steric-controlled intramolecular formal [2 + 2]-cycloaddition of alkyne-tethered cyclohexadienones. Substrates with electron-rich alkynes and a less hindered quaternary carbon center afford tricyclic fused cyclobutenes through 1,7-enyne cyclization. In contrast, the formation of dihydrofurans was observed from electron-deficient alkynes via proton abstraction/C-O bond cleavage. The synthetic potential of this method was also broadened with a gram-scale reaction and various transformations on cyclobutene.

Abstract
The compounds containing chiral centers and different functional groups serve as magnificent building blocks for the preparation of various natural products that are having immense biological activity. "Dimethyl-8-oxa-bicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-ol" is one of the wonderful synthons to construct multiple stereo centers at a time during the asymmetric synthesis. In this account, we discuss our research efforts toward the synthesis of various simple and complex natural products from the past three decades (1995-2020) by using dimethyl-8-oxa-bicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-ol as a synthon. Moreover, the synthetic utility of this starting material was investigated and well demonstrated. Further, we executed the desymmetrization of dimethyl-8-oxa-bicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-ol by hydroboration to get different chiral centers. After obtaining the stereocenters, we could manage either the fragment, formal or total synthesis of natural products, by simple protection and deprotection sequence followed by C-C bond formation steps.

Abstract
Rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric desymmetrization Pauson-Khand reaction of C4-alkynyl-tethered cyclohexadienones has been developed as a novel strategy for access to fused 6-5-5 tricycles bearing three consecutive stereogenic centers. An array of chiral tricyclo[6.2.1.04,11]undecenes have been synthesized in high yields and enantioselectivities in a single step under mild conditions. This strategy employs readily accessible internal-olefin-containing 1,6-enynes, providing a potentially powerful tool for constructing chiral polycyclic scaffolds of complex molecules containing cyclopentenones and cyclohexenones.

Abstract
A visible-light-accelerated Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H annulation of aromatic amines with bicyclic alkenes for the synthesis of benzocarbazole derivatives was developed. In this approach, with the cooperation of rhodium catalysis and visible-light irradiation, various aromatic amines reacted with oxabicyclic alkenes and azabicyclic alkenes smoothly at room temperature, delivering the corresponding bridged oxa or aza tetrahydro benzocarbazoles in good to excellent yields. Moreover, a series of benzo[b]carbazoles were synthesized conveniently through further aromatization in one pot. The potential of this method was demonstrated via directing-group removal, derivatization, a scale-up reaction, and fluorescence investigations.

Abstract
Symmetric 1,3-diketones with fluorine or fluorinated substituents on the prochiral carbon remain to be established. Herein, we have developed a novel prochiral fluorinated oxindanyl 1,3-diketone and successfully applied these substrates in carbene-catalyzed asymmetric desymmetrization. Accordingly, a versatile strategy for asymmetric generation of organofluorines with fluorine or fluorinated methyl groups has been developed. Multiple stereogenic centers were selectively constructed with satisfactory outcomes. Structurally diverse enantioenriched organofluorines were generated with excellent results in terms of yields, diastereoselectivities, and enantioselectivities. Notably, exchanging fluorinated methyl groups to fluorine for this prochiral 1,3-diketones leads to switchable stereoselectivity. Mechanistic aspects and origin of stereoselectivity were studied by DFT calculations. Notably, some of the prepared organofluorines demonstrated competitive antibacterial activities.

Abstract
A DBU-catalyzed desymmetric [3+2] cycloaddition between para-quinamines and photogenerated ketenes was developed for the first time. Under the irradiation of low-energy blue LEDs, a variety of hydroindoles bearing all-carbon quaternary centers were produced with good reaction efficiency and complete diastereoselectivity (34 examples, 45-99% yields and >95 : 5 dr). This protocol represents a new approach to synthetically significant hydroindoles, and features broad substrate scope, high functional group compatibility and mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
The development of transition-metal catalyzed enantioselective and diastereoselective transformations has contributed many advances in the field of synthetic organic chemistry. Particularly, stereoselective desymmetrization of prochiral cyclohexadienones represents a powerful strategy for accessing highly functionalized and stereochemically enriched scaffolds, which are often found in biologically active compounds and natural products. In recent years, several research groups including our group have made a significant progress on transition-metal catalyzed stereoselective desymmetrizations of 2,5-cyclohexadienones. In this account, we will provide an overview of the recent developments in this area employing Pd, Cu, Rh, Au, Ag, Ni, Co, and Mn-catalysts.
