Abstract
Base-catalyzed diastereodivergent and regioselective domino processes of triketone enones with arylacetaldehydes for the synthesis of tetrahydrofuro[2,3-b]furans with four consecutive stereocenters are reported. Good yields and diastereoselectivities are obtained when DBU is employed as a catalyst; in contrast, Et3N delivers a different diastereomer in excellent diastereoselectivity. This work offers many advantages, including switchable diastereoselectivity, cheap base catalysts, and a simple operation.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), one of the most common malignant cancers with a low 5-year survival rate, is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The finding of novel agents and strategies for the treatment of HCC is an urgent need. Sesquiterpene lactones (SLs) have attracted extensive attention because of their potent antitumor activity. In this study, a new series of SL derivatives (3-18) were synthesized using epimers 1 and 2 as parent molecules, isolated from Sphagneticola trilobata, and evaluated for their anti-HCC activity. Furthermore, the structures of 4, 6, and 14 were confirmed by X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses. The cytotoxic activities of 3-18 on two HCC cell lines, including HepG2 and Huh7, were evaluated using the CCK-8 assay. Among them, compound 10 exhibited the best activity against the HepG2 and Huh7 cell lines. Further studies showed that 10 induced cell apoptosis, arrested the cell cycle at the S phase, and induced the inhibition of cell proliferation and migration in HepG2 and Huh7. In addition, absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties prediction showed that 10 may possess the properties to be a drug candidate. Thus, 10 may be a promising lead compound for the treatment of HCC.

Abstract
Herein, a novel switchable multipath cascade cyclization via chemodivergent reaction between readily available ketoamides and deconjugated butenolides was developed to efficiently synthesize γ-lactone fused γ-lactams and succinimide fused hemiketals. The Aldol/aza-Michael reaction and Aldol/imidation/hemiketalization reaction were enabled by catalytic amounts of two bases, namely tetramethyl guanidine and NaOAc. A wide range of substrate scope with diverse functional group compatibility was demonstrated to deliver the corresponding products with good yield and excellent diastereoselectivity (>60 examples).

Abstract
Herein, a new strategy for the enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral N-aryl succinimides was devised by [3 + 2] annulation of MBH carbonates and N-aryl maleimides under chiral phosphine. This desymmetrization process allows for quick construction of both two stereogenic carbon centers and a remote CAr-N atropisomeric chirality. A series of structurally diverse N-aryl succinimides were obtained with good to excellent yields, diastereoselectivities, and enantioselectivities. The process is mild, efficient, and scalable and features a broad substrate scope.

Abstract
Highly efficient and straightforward access to enantioenriched five-membered ring-fused chromanones is developed via [3+2]-cycloaddition of 3-cyanochromones with Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates. Densely functionalized chiral cyclopenta[b]chromanones with three continuous quaternary and tertiary stereogenic carbon centers were obtained in high yields with high ee and dr (≤97% yield, 97% ee, and >20:1 dr). Moreover, density functional theory calculations have been carried out to investigate the mechanism and regio- and diastereoselectivity of the reaction.
