Palladium-Catalyzed [5 + 2] Annulation of Vinylethylene Carbonates with Barbiturate-Derived Alkenes

A palladium/XantPhos-catalyzed [5 + 2] annulation of VECs with electron-deficient alkenes having an isolated carbon-carbon double bond has been developed to afford spirobarbiturate-tetrahydrooxepines. This study provides an expedient assembly of biologically interesting spirobarbiturate-tetrahydrooxepines. The easy scalability and versatile transformability of the reaction products were also exhibited.

Spiro[indene-1,4′-oxa-zolidinones] Synthesis via Rh(III)-Catalyzed Coupling of 4-Phenyl-1,3-oxazol-2(3 H)-ones with Alkynes: A Redox-Neutral Approach

Transition-metal-catalyzed C-H activation synthesis of heterocyclic spiro[4,4]nonanes has persistently witnessed the use of additional stoichiometric transition-metal oxidant when employing C=C bond as the spiro ring closure site. Herein, we have addressed the issue by reporting a redox-neutral strategy for spiro[indene-1,4′-oxa-zolidinones] synthesis via Rh(III)-catalyzed coupling of 4-phenyl-1,3-oxazol-2(3H)-ones with alkynes. The synthesis features a broad substrate scope and high regiospecificity.

Chiral Ion-Pair Organocatalyst-Promoted Efficient Enantio-selective Reduction of α-Hydroxy Ketones

The enantioselective reduction of α-hydroxy ketones with catecholborane has been developed employing 5 mol% of an 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL)-derived ion-pair organocatalyst. This methodology provides a straightforward access to the corresponding aromatic 1,2-diols in high yields (up to 90%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97%). Furthermore, the α-amino ketones also could be reduced with moderate ee values under mild reaction condition. (Figure presented.).
