Abstract
State-of-the-art strategies for alkene-hydroxyazidation, which yield a mixture of β-azido alcohol and β-azido peroxide, must rely on phosphine reagents to improve the chemoselectivity. To overcome the above problems, we present a photochemical hydroxyazidation of alkenes via Mn-mediated ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) in O2, which activates N3- to •N3 and incorporates O2 to be used as an oxygen source in the hydroxyazidation products. Broad alkene range and step-economy chemistry for the hydroxyazidation transformation were also demonstrated.

Abstract
Herein, we disclose a facile synthetic strategy to access an important class of drug molecules that contain chiral 1,2-amino alcohol functionality utilizing highly effective ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of unprotected α-ketoamines. Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a crisis of shortage of many important drugs, especially norepinephrine and epinephrine, for the treatment of anaphylaxis and hypotension because of the increased demand. Unfortunately, the existing technologies are not fulfilling the worldwide requirement due to the existing lengthy synthetic protocols that require additional protection and deprotection steps. We identified a facile synthetic protocol via a highly enantioselective one-step process for epinephrine and a two-step process for norepinephrine starting from unprotected α-ketoamines 1b and 1a, respectively. This newly developed enantioselective ruthenium-catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation was extended to the synthesis of many 1,2-amino alcohol-containing drug molecules such as phenylephrine, denopamine, norbudrine, and levisoprenaline, with enantioselectivities of >99% ee and high isolated yields.

Abstract
The insertion of carbonyl into C(sp2)-Pd(II) σ-bond (Grignard-type addition) was not established until the 1990s. While this elemental reaction has been well explored since then, its application in Pd(0) asymmetric catalysis remain elusive. Herein, we report the Pd(0)-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular Grignard-type reaction of vinyl iodide-carbonyl in the presence of HCO2H additive, affording cyclic allylic alcohol with good to excellent enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity. Mechanistic studies suggested that besides serving as an efficient reductant, HCO2H is also capable of facilitating protonation of the involved secondary alkoxyl-Pd(II), thus completely suppressing the β-H elimination. Moreover, no KIE was found in the competing reaction between vinyl iodide-aldehyde and 1-deuterated one, demonstrating the facile step of aldehyde insertion.

Abstract
Herein we describe a sustainable and efficient photocatalytic method for the stereoselective radical alkylation of chiral sulfinyl imines. By employing readily available non-prefunctionalized radical precursors and the cost-effective TBADT as a direct HAT photocatalyst, we successfully obtain diverse chiral amines with high yields and excellent diastereoselectivity under mild conditions. This method provides an efficient approach for accessing a diverse array of medicinally relevant compounds, including both natural and synthetic α-amino acids, aryl ethyl amines, and other structural motifs commonly found in approved pharmaceuticals and natural product.

Abstract
In the long-standing quest to synthesize fundamental building blocks with key functional group motifs, photochemistry in the recent past has comprehensively established its attractiveness. Amino alcohols are not only functionally diverse but are ubiquitous in the biologically active realm of compounds. We developed bench-stable bifunctional reagents that could then access the sparsely reported γ-amino alcohols directly from feedstock alkenes through energy transfer (EnT) photocatalysis. A designed 1,3-linkage across alkenes is made possible by the intervention of a radical Brook rearrangement that takes place downstream to the EnT-mediated homolysis of our reagent(s). A combination of experimental mechanistic investigations and detailed computational studies (DFT) indicates a radical chain propagated reaction pathway.

Abstract
The asymmetric cross-coupling of unsaturated bonds, hampered by their comparable polarity and reactivity, as well as the scarcity of efficient catalytic systems capable of diastereo- and enantiocontrol, presents a significant hurdle in organic synthesis. In this study, we introduce a highly adaptable photochemical cobalt catalysis framework that facilitates chemo- and stereoselective reductive cross-couplings between common aldehydes with a broad array of carbonyl and iminyl compounds, including N-acylhydrazones, aryl ketones, aldehydes, and α-keto esters. Our methodology hinges on a synergistic mechanism driven by photoredox-induced single-electron reduction and subsequent radical-radical coupling, all precisely guided by a chiral cobalt catalyst. Various optically enriched β-amino alcohols and unsymmetrical 1,2-diol derivatives (80 examples) have been synthesized with good yields (up to 90% yield) and high stereoselectivities (up to >20:1 dr, 99% ee). Of particular note, this approach accomplishes unattainable photochemical asymmetric transformations of aldehydes with disparate carbonyl partners without reliance on any external photosensitizer, thereby further emphasizing its versatility and cost-efficiency.

Abstract
We present highly efficient and operationally simple synthetic methods for 1,2-aminoalcohols via electroreductive cross aza-pinacol coupling between N-acyl diarylketimines and aldehydes. Preliminary mechanistic studies including cyclic voltammetry and density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest that the reaction is instigated by selective electrochemical single electron transfer (SET) of N-acylketimines. The developed electrochemical protocol is compatible to biorelevant functional groups, enabling late-stage functionalization of pharmacophores.

Abstract
Carbo- and heterocycles are frequently used as crucial scaffolds in natural products, fine chemicals, and biologically and pharmaceutically active compounds. Transition-metal-catalyzed cyclization of 1,6-enynes has emerged as a powerful strategy for constructing functionalized carbo- and heterocycles. Despite significant progress, the regioselectivity of alkyne functionalization is entirely substrate-dependent. And only exo-cyclization/cross-coupling products can be obtained, while endo-selective cyclization/cross-coupling remains elusive and still poses a formidable challenge. In this study, we disclose a nickel-catalyzed switchable arylation/cyclization of 1,6-enynes in which the nature of the ligand dictates the regioselectivity of alkyne arylation, while the electrophilic trapping reagents determine the selectivity of the cyclization mode. Specifically, using a commercially available 1,10-phenanthroline as a ligand facilitates trans-arylation/cyclization to obtain seven-membered ring products, while a 2-naphthyl-substituted bisbox ligand promotes cis-arylation/cyclization to access six-membered ring products. Diastereoselective cyclizations have also been developed for the synthesis of enantioenriched piperidines and azepanes, which are core structural elements of pharmaceuticals and natural products possessing important biological activities. Furthermore, experimental and density functional theory studies reveal that the regioselectivity of the alkyne arylation process is entirely controlled by the steric hindrance of the ligand; the reaction mechanism involves exo-cyclization followed by Dowd-Beckwith-type ring expansion to form endo-cyclization products.

Abstract
In the last decade, magnesium complexes have emerged as a viable alternative to transition-metal catalysts for the hydrofunctionalization of unsaturated bonds. However, their potential for advanced catalytic reactions has not been thoroughly investigated. To address this gap, we have developed a novel magnesium amide compound (3) using a PNP framework that is both bulky and flexible. Our research demonstrates that compound 3 can effectively catalyze the synthesis of biologically significant oxazolidinone derivatives. This synthesis involves a tandem reaction of hydroalkoxylation and cyclohydroamination of isocyanate using propargyl alcohol. Furthermore, we conducted comprehensive theoretical calculations to gain insights into the reaction mechanism. It is important to note that these types of transformations have not been reported for magnesium and would significantly enhance the catalytic portfolio of the 7th most abundant element.

An one-pot organo- and iodine sequential catalysis strategy for reactions of amides with pyrazole-based primary amines was described to synthesize chiral α-amino amides with a quaternary stereocenter. This methodology exhibited strong asymmetric induction, resulting in a typical enantiomeric excess value exceeding 99% and diastereoselectivity up to >99:1 dr. Moreover, the reaction was conducted without the use of any metals or strong bases.

Abstract
Herein, we describe a Brønsted-acid-catalyzed enantioselective desymmetrization of 1,3-diols with alkynes through a hydroalkoxylation/hydrolysis process. The reaction leads to the atom-economical synthesis of valuable chiral β-amino alcohols under mild reaction conditions. Further synthetic transformations based on the β-amino alcohol moiety provide divergent approaches toward chiral N-containing heterocycles.

Abstract
Biocatalytic cascades are a powerful tool for building complex molecules containing oxygen and nitrogen functionalities. Moreover, the combination of multiple enzymes in one pot offers the possibility to minimize downstream processing and waste production. In this review, we illustrate various recent efforts in the development of multi-step syntheses involving C-O and C-N bond-forming enzymes to produce high value-added compounds, such as pharmaceuticals and polymer precursors. Both in vitro and in vivo examples are discussed, revealing the respective advantages and drawbacks. The use of engineered enzymes to boost the cascades outcome is also addressed and current co-substrate and cofactor recycling strategies are presented, highlighting the importance of atom economy. Finally, tools to overcome current challenges for multi-enzymatic oxy- and amino-functionalization reactions are discussed, including flow systems with immobilized biocatalysts and cascades in confined nanomaterials.

Abstract
Photocatalysis offers tremendous opportunities for enzymes to access new functions. Herein, we described a redox-neutral photocatalysis/enzymatic catalysis system for the asymmetric synthesis of chiral 1,2-amino alcohols via decarboxylative radical C-C coupling of N-arylglycines and aldehydes by combining an organic photocatalyst, eosin Y, and carbonyl reductase RasADH. Notably, this protocol avoids using any sacrificial reductants. A possible reaction mechanism proposed is that the transformation proceeds through sequential photoinduced decarboxylative radical addition to an aldehyde and a photoenzymatic deracemization pathway. This redox-neutral photoredox/enzymatic strategy is promising not only for effective synthesis of a series of chiral amino alcohols in a green and sustainable manner but also for the design of other novel C-C radical coupling transformations for the synthesis of bioactive molecules.

Abstract
In the present study, a series of benzotriazole-based β-amino alcohols were efficiently synthesized in excellent yields via aminolysis of benzotriazolated epoxides under catalyst- and solvent-free conditions. Further these β-amino alcohols were successfully utilized to synthesize the corresponding benzotriazole-based oxazolidine heterocyclic derivatives. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by various spectroscopic techniques such as 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass spectroscopy for structure elucidation. The compounds were subjected to a microtiter plate-based antimicrobial assay. The antimicrobial activity results reveal that the compounds 4a, 4e, and 5f were found to be active against Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC-25923) with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 32, 8, and 64 μM, respectively. Also, the compounds 4a, 4e, 4k, 4i, 4m, 4n, 4o, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, and 5h showed effective activity against Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633) with MICs of 64, 16, 16, 16, 64, 16, 64, 64, 32, 64, 8, and 16 μM, respectively. A biological investigation was conducted, including molecular docking of two compounds with several receptors to identify and confirm the best ligand-protein interactions. Hence, this study found a significant strategy to diversify the chemical molecules. The synthesized compounds play a potential role as an antibacterial intensifier against some pathogenic bacteria for the development of antibacterial substances.

Abstract
A catalyst-free photosensitized strategy has been developed for regioselective imino functionalizations of alkenes via the formation of an EDA complex. This photo-induced protocol facilitates the construction of structurally diverse β-imino sulfones and vinyl sulfones in moderate to high yields. Mechanistic studies reveal that the reaction is initiated with an intermolecular charge transfer between oximes and sulfinates, followed by fragmentation to generate a persistent iminyl radical and transient sulfonyl radical. This catalyst-free protocol also features excellent regioselectivity, broad functional group tolerance and mild reaction conditions. The late stage functionalization of natural product derived compounds and total synthesis of some bioactive molecules have been demonstrated to highlight the utility of this protocol. Meanwhile, the compatibility of different donors has proved the generality of this strategy.

Abstract
Chiral β-amino alcohols are crucial structural motifs found in pharmaceuticals, natural products, and chiral ligands in asymmetric catalysis. Despite previous advances, the development of catalytic approaches to access β-amino alcohols bearing vicinal stereocenters from readily available chemicals remains a prominent challenge. Herein, we describe the Cr-catalyzed asymmetric cross aza-pinacol coupling of aldehydes and N-sulfonyl imines. This protocol proceeds in a radical-polar crossover manner from the intermediacy of an α-amino radical instead of a ketyl radical. Key to the success is using a chiral chromium catalyst, which plays a triple role in the chemoselective single-electron reduction of the imine, fast radical interception to inhibit radical addition to imines, and chemo- and stereoselective addition to aldehydes instead of imines. This method provides a modular and efficient approach to accessing diverse β-amino alcohols bearing vicinal stereocenters.

Abstract
Facile access to sterically hindered α-tertiary primary amines via photocatalytic radical coupling of native C(sp3)-H substrates with N-unsubstituted ketimines is reported. LiBr was used as a hydrogen atom transfer reagent to cleave C(sp3)-H bonds to get alkyl radicals. The in situ-generated HBr can then serve as a Bronsted acid to activate N-unsubstituted ketimines readily for single-electron reduction to deliver α-amino radicals. As a consequence, radical-radical coupling affords primary amines with a congested α-tertiary substituent. This reaction is highlighted by simple and mild conditions, 100% atom-economy, and broad hydrocarbon substrate scope for benzyl ethers, cyclic ethers, benzyl alcohols, alkylarenes, and carbocycles.

Abstract
α-Amino ketones are important motifs in synthetic and medicinal chemistry. Efficient methods to directly access these motifs from feasible precursors are, however, limited. Herein, a visible-light mediated reductive cross-electrophile coupling of readily available imines and anhydrides was developed. Under mild reaction conditions, the umpolung reactivity of diverse imines engaged with anhydrides gives a variety of α-amino ketones with good yields and a broad functional group compatibility. Primary mechanistic studies revealed that this transformation might proceed through a radical-radical cross coupling pathway dominantly.

Abstract
An economical route providing quick access to chiral β-amino alcohols bearing one β-sec-alkyl group was developed. This protocol starts with commercially available and cheap chiral sources such as derivatives of L-serine and L-threonine. A series of vicinal amino alcohols with high optical purity were prepared in good yields through 4 or 6 operationally simple steps. Two different strategies (three routes) were designed for the synthesis of amino alcohols bearing β-sec-alkyl groups with various steric hindrance.

Abstract
A biocatalytic approach for the synthesis of metaxalone and its analogues was developed based on the reaction of epoxides and cyanate catalyzed by halohydrin dehalogenase. Gram-scale synthesis of chiral and racemic metaxalone was achieved with 44% (98% ee) and 81% yields, respectively, by protein engineering of the halohydrin dehalogenase HHDHamb from Acidimicrobiia bacterium. Additionally, various metaxalone analogues were synthesized at 28-40% yields (90-99% ee) for chiral forms and 77-92% yields for racemic forms.

Abstract
A double C(sp3)-H functionalization of ethylarenes with alcohols and N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide is reported. The reaction proceeds in three stages. (1) Cu-catalyzed benzylic alkoxylation of ethylarenes gives 1-(1-alkoxyethyl)benzenes. (2) The resulting 1-(1-alkoxyethyl)benzenes are gradually converted into vinylarenes. (3) Cu-catalyzed aminoalkoxylation of the intermediary vinylarenes yields arylethanolamines. Overall, the C-N and C-O bonds are introduced regioselectively at the homobenzylic and benzylic positions of ethylarenes.

Abstract
We developed 2,4,5,6-tetrakis(2,7-dibromo-9H-carbazol-9-yl)isophthalonitrile (2,7-Br-4CzIPN) as a new photosensitizer for the energy-transfer-driven N-O bond dissociation of oxime esters. In the presence of 2,7-Br-4CzIPN, difunctionalization of alkenes with oxime esters, including oxyimination, aminocarboxylation, and amidylimination, could afford a variety of versatile molecules in good yields with excellent regioselectivity, which widely occur in natural products and drugs. Our theoretical investigations and experiments have demonstrated that 2,7-Br-4CzIPN has unique photophysical properties, favorable triplet energy, and excellent photocatalytic activity.

Abstract
Although the Heck reactions of alkene partners with various electrophiles have achieved great success, the variant focused on carbon═heteroatom counterparts still remains elusive. Herein, we report a Pd(0)-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular hydrazone-type Heck reaction of N-[(Z)-3-iodoallyl]-aminoacetaldehyde and hydrazine hydrate (NH2NH2-H2O), wherein the required hydrazone is in situ generated via an acid-promoted condensation. A key strategic advantage of this Heck paradigm is that the resultant Heck product allylic diazene rapidly undergoes stereospecific denitrogenative [1,5]-sigmatropic rearrangement, eventually furnishing a domino sequence toward 3-substituted tetrahydropyridine (THP) with high enantioselectivity. The substrate-induced diastereoselective version has also been realized, exclusively giving cis-2,5-disubstituted THPs. The utility of this sequence is demonstrated by the formal synthesis of multiple valuable bioactive targets, including 3-ethylindoloquinolizine, preclamol, and niraparib.

Abstract
An atom-economical intermolecular iron-catalyzed oxyamination of alkenes is described herein. The insertion of oxygenated and nitrogenated moieties from the hydroxylamine substrate was observed with full regio- and chemo-selectivity for terminal alkenes in good yields. HFIP as a solvent appeared to have a synergistic effect with the iron catalyst to promote the formation of the oxyaminated products. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest a pathway going through an aziridination reaction followed by an in situ ring opening.

Abstract
Disclosed herein is an efficient organocatalytic formal N-H insertion reaction of arylamines with α-keto sulfoxonium ylides bearing two aryl groups, delivering a broad range of α-tertiary aminoketones with good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities (up to 90% yield and 94% ee). The utilities of this protocol were also demonstrated by facile preparation of enantioenriched 2-amino-1,2-diarylethanol bearing two different aryl groups, a type of important building block lacking efficient access.

Abstract
Carbon-carbon bond formation is an efficient approach for the synthesis of amino alcohols using two simple starting materials. Herein, we present a novel method for a divergent synthesis of β-amino ethers and β-amino alcohols in a sequential one-pot protocol under high-efficiency, mild, and metal- or metal-free conditions. Especially, TMSCH2OPMP was developed as a synthetic equivalent of α-hydroxymethyl radical in an in situ photocatalyzed oxidative PMP group deprotection strategy under air. A preliminary mechanistic investigation provides evidence for reaction mechanism involving a photoinduced α-alkoxy methyl radical and superoxide.

Abstract
A highly chemoselective and enantioselective fluorescent probe has been discovered for the recognition of prolinol among various primary and secondary amine-based amino alcohols. The mechanistic studies including 1D and 2D 1H/13C NMR and mass spectroscopic analyses and DFT calculations have shown that the aldehyde group of the probe can react with prolinol to generate a bicyclic oxazolidine unit which, through a possible intramolecular hydrogen bond interaction, will lead to highly selective fluorescence enhancement.

Abstract
Herein we report the first method for highly enantioselective Brønsted acid catalyzed Heyns rearrangements. These reactions, catalyzed by a chiral spiro phosphoric acid, afforded synthetically valuable chiral α-aryl-α-aminoketones which cannot be obtained by means of previously reported Heyns rearrangement methods. This method features low catalyst loadings, high yields and high enantioselectivities, making these reactions highly practical. We used the method to efficiently synthesize various chiral amines, including some biologically active molecules. We experimentally proved that these acid-catalyzed Heyns rearrangements proceeded via a proton-transfer process involving an enol intermediate and the stereocontrol was realized during the proton-transfer step.

Abstract
Herein, we present a mild strategy for deprotecting cyclic sulfamidates via the Kukhtin-Ramirez reaction to access amino sugars. The method features the removal of the sulfonic group of cyclic sulfamidates, which occurs through an N-H insertion reaction that implicates the Kukhtin-Ramirez adducts, followed by a base-promoted reductive N-S bond cleavage. The mild reaction conditions of the protocol enable the formation of amino alcohols including analogs that bear multiple functional groups.

Palladium-catalyzed functionalization was presently performed on two building blocks: 4-oxazolin-2-ones and 4-methylene-2-oxazolidinones. Direct Heck arylation of 4-oxazolin-2-ones led to a series of 5-aryl-4-oxazolin-2-ones, including analogues with N-chiral auxiliary, in an almost quantitative yield. The Pd(II)-catalyzed homocoupling reaction of 4-oxazolin-2-ones provided novel heterocyclic across-ring dienes. Meanwhile, the intramolecular cross-coupling of N-aryl-4-methylene-2-oxazolidinones furnished a series of oxazolo[3,4-a]indol-3-ones. Further functionalization of 4-methylene-2-oxazolidinones afforded substituted indoles and heterocyclic-fused indoles with aryl, bromo, carbinol, formyl, and vinyl groups. A computational study was carried out to account for the behavior of the formylated derivatives. The currently developed methodology was applied to a new formal total synthesis of ellipticine.

Origin of the Unexpected Enantioselectivity in the Enzymatic Reductions of 5-Membered-Ring Heterocyclic Ketones Catalyzed by Candida parapsilosis Carbonyl Reductases. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
Candida parapsilosis carbonyl reductases (CpRCR) have been widely used for the reductive conversion of ketone precursors and chiral alcohol products in pharmaceutical industries. The enzymatic enantioselectivity is believed to be related to the shape complementation between the cavities in the enzymes and the substitutions of the ketone substrates. In this work, we reported an unexpected enantioselectivity in the enzyme reductions of dihydrofuran-3(2H)-one (DHF) to (S)-tetrahydrofuran-3-ol (DHF-ol, enantiomeric excess: 96.4%), while dihydrothiophen-3(2H)-one substrate (DHT) was unproductive under the same experimental conditions. To rationalize the exclusive S-configuration and the specific reactivity of DHF, we carried out molecular dynamics simulations for the reacting complexations of DHF with CpRCR, and DHT with CpRCR. Our calculations indicate that DHF preferentially binds to the small cavity near L119, F285, and W286, while the large cavity near the α1 helix was mainly occupied by solvent water molecules. Moreover, the pre-reaction state analysis suggests that the pro-S conformations were more abundant than the pro-R, in particular for DHF. This suggests that the non-polar interaction of substrate C4-C5 methylene contacting the hydrophobic side-chains of L119-F285-W286, and the polar interaction of funanyl oxygen exposing the solvent environment play important roles in the enantioselectivity and reactivity. The phylogenetic tree of CpRCR homologues implies that a variety of amino acid combinations at positions 285 and 286 were available and thereby potentially useful for redesigning enantioselective reductions of 5-membered-ring heterocyclic ketones.

Abstract
The X-ray structures of three simple heterocyclic compounds have been obtained for the first time. Structures of both 3-acetyloxazolidin-2-one 1 and its unsaturated analogue 3-acetyloxazolin-2-one 3 show a planar imide nitrogen with the exocyclic C=O oriented anti to the ring N–C(=O) bond and negligible intermolecular interactions, a pattern consistent with previously reported analogues. In contrast the parent NH heterocycle, oxazolin-2(3H)-one 4, exists as hydrogen bonded dimers of two closely similar independent molecules but an unusual type of disorder involving exchange of the ring O and NH positions results in a very high R factor.

Abstract
The diastereoselective α-hydroxylation of N-tert-butanesulfinyl metallodienenamine and metalloenamines with Davis oxaziridine affords α-hydroxy N-sulfinyl imines with 50-88% yield and up to 98:2 diastereomeric ratio. Dramatic changes in diastereoselectivity and stereoselectivity were observed by choice of metal bases. The mechanistic understanding for the switch in diastereoselectivity was assisted by DFT computational modeling, which suggests the facial approach is governed by aza-enolate geometry. A one-pot protocol for the asymmetric synthesis of 1,2-amino alcohols is described.

Abstract
The merger of photoredox and transition-metal catalysis has evolved as a robust platform in organic synthesis over the past decade. The stereoselective 1,4-functionalization of 1,3-enynes, a prevalent synthon in synthetic chemistry, could afford valuable chiral allene derivatives. However, tremendous efforts have been focused on the ionic reaction pathway. The radical-involved asymmetric 1,4-functionalization of 1,3-enynes remains a prominent challenge. Herein, we describe the asymmetric three-component 1,4-dialkylation of 1,3-enynes via dual photoredox and chromium catalysis to provide chiral allenols. This method features readily available starting materials, broad substrate scope, good functional group compatibility, high regioselectivity, and simultaneous control of axial and central chiralities. Mechanistic studies suggest that this reaction proceeds through a radical-involved redox-neutral pathway.

Abstract
A simple and efficient AgOTf-promoted tandem olefin isomerization/intramolecular hydroamination of 1,1-disubstituted alkenyl amines has been developed. This one-pot process represents a facile and attractive route for the synthesis of diverse 2-alkyl-substituted 1,3-X,N-heterocycles through chemo- and regioselective C(sp3)-N bond formation with atom economy. Advantages such as the operationally simple and practical procedure that uses a readily available catalyst under aerobic conditions, good to excellent chemical yields, the high functional group tolerance, the broad substrate scope, and high efficiency and selectivity are noteworthy.

Abstract
As a fundamental and synthetically useful C-C bond formation reaction, the aldol reaction is one of the most versatile transformations in organic synthesis. However, despite extensive research on asymmetric versions of the reaction, a unified method for stereoselective access to the complementary syn and anti diastereomeric products remains to be developed. In this study, we developed a synergistic palladium/chiral Lewis base system that overcomes the inherent diastereoselectivity bias of aldol reactions and, as a result, allowed us to achieve the first diastereodivergent coupling reactions of alkoxyallenes with pentafluorophenol esters. Computational studies suggest a mechanism involving an intermolecular protonative hydropalladation pathway rather than a palladium-hydride migratory insertion pathway. The origin of the stereochemistry for this synergistic catalysis system is rationalized by DFT calculations.

Abstract

Optically pure epoxides
are recognized as highly valuable products
and key intermediates, useful in different areas from pharmaceutical
and agrochemical industries to natural product synthesis and materials
science. The predictable fate of the ring-opening process, in terms
of stereoselectivity and often of regioselectivity, enables useful
functional groups to be installed at vicinal carbon atoms in a desired
manner. In this way, products of widespread utility either for synthetic
applications or as final products can be obtained. The advent of asymmetric
organocatalysis provided a new convenient tool, not only for their
preparation but also for the elaboration of this class of heterocycles.
In this review, we focus on recent developments of stereoselective
organocatalytic ring-opening reactions of meso-epoxides,
kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides, and Meinwald-type rearrangement.
Examples of asymmetric organocatalytic processes toward specific synthetic
targets, which include ring opening of an epoxide intermediate, are
also illustrated.

Abstract
Herein, we demonstrate the applicability of the 2,5-dimethylpyrrolo unit as a complementary N-protecting group in the highly diastereoselective synthesis of more than 20 different anti-amino alcohols (63-90% yields with up to 20 : 1 dr). Cleavage of the pyrrolo-N-protecting group was accomplished, e.g. in the presence of NH2OH under microwave conditions with yields exceeding 80%. The applicability of the protecting groups was further demonstrated by a short total synthesis of the sphinganine-like natural product clavaminol A. The introduction of the N-pyrrolo protecting group also offers the possibility to analyse product mixtures by NMR measurements due to the absence of conformational isomers, which are otherwise common for N-protecting groups.

Abstract
![]()
A Pd-catalyzed method based on the use of a molecular
tether is
described for olefin difunctionalization. Enabled by an easily introduced
trifluoroacetaldehyde-derived tether, a simultaneous introduction
of oxygen and nitrogen heteroatoms across unsaturated carbon–carbon
bonds was achieved under oxidative conditions, most probably via high-valent
Pd intermediates. Good yields and high diastereoselectivity were obtained
with aryl-substituted alkenes, whereas nonterminal alkyl-substituted
olefins gave aza-Heck products. Tether cleavage under mild conditions
provided fast access to functionalized β-amino alcohols.
