Abstract
A simple, flexible and efficient organocatalyzed synthetic approach for the synthesis of (-)-trans-, (+)-trans- and (+)-cis-disparlures has been described. The pivotal reaction sequence comprises organocatalyzed asymmetric Jørgensen epoxidation, Wittig olefination, migration of epoxide and Mitsunobu inversion reaction. Excellent enantiomeric purity (≥99%) was achieved during the synthesis of disparlure enantiomers by the Jørgensen epoxidation key step.

Abstract
The chemo- and stereoselective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes to alkenes is a fundamental transformation in synthetic chemistry, for which the use of precious 4d or 5d metal catalysts is well-established. In mankind's unwavering quest for sustainability, research focus has considerably veered towards the 3d metals. Given their high abundancy and availability as well as lower toxicity and noxiousness, they are undoubtedly attractive from both an economic and an environmental perspective. Herein, we wish to present noteworthy and groundbreaking examples for the use of 3d metal catalysts for diastereoselective alkyne semi-hydrogenation as we embark on a journey through the first-row transition metals.

Abstract
The mechanism of our previously reported catalytic asymmetric bromocyclization reactions using 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1'-binaphthyl (BINAP) monoxide was examined in detail by the means of control experiments, NMR studies, X-ray structure analysis, and CryoSpray electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) analysis. The chiral BINAP monoxide was transformed to a key catalyst precursor, proton-bridged bisphosphine oxide complex (POHOP·Br), in the presence of N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) and contaminating water. The thus-formed POHOP further reacts with NBS to afford BINAP dioxide and molecular bromine (Br2) simultaneously in equimolar amounts. While the resulting Br2 is activated by NBS to form a more reactive brominating reagent (Br2─NBS), BINAP dioxide serves as a bifunctional catalyst, acting as both a Lewis base that reacts with Br2─NBS to form a chiral brominating agent (P═O+─Br) and also as a Brønsted base for the activation of the substrate. By taking advantage of this novel concerted Lewis/Brønsted base catalysis by BINAP dioxide, we achieved the first regio- and chemodivergent parallel kinetic resolutions (PKRs) of racemic unsymmetrical bisallylic amides via bromocyclization.

Abstract
The halogen-bonding interaction between I2 and N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) stabilized by a Lewis base (LB) has been explored. 1H NMR, nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE), and diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy (DOSY) suggest the generation of a 1:1:1 assembly, LB-I2-NIS. In contrast, when N-iodotrifluoromethanesulfonimide (INTf2) is used instead of NIS, LB-I5+-LB is generated. On the basis of these results in combination with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we propose a mechanism for the formation of I2-NIS and the subsequent generation of an active iodinating species LB-I+.

Abstract
A regio- and stereoselective iodolactonization of internal electron-deficient olefinic acids has been reported, which provides a straightforward access to a series of multi-functionalized seven-membered lactones containing two consecutive chiral centers. The ester substituents on the olefins played a key role in achieving high regioselectivity. This result was proved through experiments and DFT calculations.

Abstract
The halolactonization reaction is a useful chemical transformation for the construction of lactones from γ- or δ-substituted alkenoic carboxylic acids or carboxylic esters. Traditionally, the stereoselectivity of these reactions has been controlled by the substrates or the reagents. The substrate-controlled method has been extensively studied and applied in the synthesis of many natural products. However, catalytic, enantioselective iodolactonizations of γ- or δ-substituted alkenoic carboxylic acids have only recently been developed. This review article highlights the advances that have emerged over the last decade.

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.
