Cascade reactions are important synthetic tools for the synthesis of heterocyclic molecules, particularly those catalyzed by palladium. Herein, we report a palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylative cyclization of new 1-alkynyl-2-iodo-d-glucals, which undergo a tandem carbonylative cyclization in the presence of various amine nucleophiles. A broad range of aromatic and aliphatic amines were applied as coupling partners, resulting in the selective and high-yield synthesis of glycosides fused to pyridinones. A plausible mechanism is proposed, proceeding via a tandem palladium aminocarbonylation followed by a palladium-catalyzed endo-dig cyclization.

Nonsymmetric 6π-electron (“oxidized”) 6-oxoverdazyls have been synthesized for the first time. After formal incorporation of a hydrogen atom, the corresponding 7π-electron neutral verdazyl radical is generated. The 7π radical can undergo a further electrochemically reversible reduction to an 8π anion. Both redox processes occur at more moderate potentials than the parent verdazyl, tuning the accessible potential windows of 6π, 7π, and 8π verdazyl species.

Herein, we report the application of a benzyloxy-functionalized malonic acid half thioester as an activated ester equivalent in a highly enantioselective decarboxylative glycolate aldol reaction. This robust method operates at ambient temperature, tolerates air and moisture, and generates CO2 as the only byproduct. The synthetic applicability of the method is demonstrated by the large-scale enantiodivergent synthesis of α-benzyloxy-β-hydroxybutyric acid thioester and its subsequent conversion to diverse polyoxygenated building blocks, deoxy-sugars, and (−)-angiopterlactone B.

Organoborons have recently received much attention, while a biocatalytic platform for the synthesis of chiral organoborons is limited only to Rma cytochrome c. In this study, we exploited the other heme protein, neuroglobin (Ngb), and engineered a quadruple mutant, A15C/H64G/V68F/F28M Ngb, by redesigning the heme active site using the structural information on A15C Ngb and molecular docking studies. The enzyme was shown to be efficient in catalyzing carbene transfer B–H insertion reactions between pyridine/quinoline boranes and benzyl 2-diazopropanoates and their derivatives (29 examples). The designed cavity in the heme distal site favors the binding of large volume substrates such as those containing a quinoline, naphthyl, or biphenyl group. As further determined by the X-ray crystallography of 6c, the chiral products are in the R-configuration, with up to 98:2 e.r. Furthermore, both the whole cell and cell lysate containing the enzyme are reactive toward the B–H insertion reactions. This study presents a convenient biocatalytic platform that may be generally applicable for the synthesis of functional chiral organoborons.

Site-selective activation of a particular remote C–H bond in molecules with multiple C–H bonds remains challenging in organic synthesis. In addition, evolving such transformations via the utilization of unconventional techniques is highly desirable. We demonstrated hitherto unexplored double bond geometry-guided and end-on nitrile-template-assisted meta-C–H functionalization of indene enoate esters under microwave-accelerated conditions. Significantly, the strategy exhibited broad compatibility concerning the substrates and olefin coupling partners. Remarkably, drug diversification has also been showcased.

Site-selective activation of a particular remote C–H bond in molecules with multiple C–H bonds remains challenging in organic synthesis. In addition, evolving such transformations via the utilization of unconventional techniques is highly desirable. We demonstrated hitherto unexplored double bond geometry-guided and end-on nitrile-template-assisted meta-C–H functionalization of indene enoate esters under microwave-accelerated conditions. Significantly, the strategy exhibited broad compatibility concerning the substrates and olefin coupling partners. Remarkably, drug diversification has also been showcased.

Nonsymmetric 6π-electron (“oxidized”) 6-oxoverdazyls have been synthesized for the first time. After formal incorporation of a hydrogen atom, the corresponding 7π-electron neutral verdazyl radical is generated. The 7π radical can undergo a further electrochemically reversible reduction to an 8π anion. Both redox processes occur at more moderate potentials than the parent verdazyl, tuning the accessible potential windows of 6π, 7π, and 8π verdazyl species.
