We develop a visible light-promoted divergent cycloaddition of α-diazo esters with hexahydro-1,3,5-triazines, leading to a series of aziridine and imidazolidine frameworks in average good yield, by simply changing the reaction media used. It is noteworthy that the reaction occurs under sole visible light irradiation without the need for exogenous photoredox catalysts. More significantly, a reasonable reaction mechanism was proposed on the basis of the control experiments and density functional theory calculation results.

Transition-metal-catalyzed C—H insertion of metal-carbene represents an excellent and powerful approach for C—H functionalization. However, despite remarkable advances in metal-carbene chemistry, transition metal catalysts that are capable of enantioselective intermolecular carbene C—H insertion are mainly constrained to dirhodium(II) and iridium(III)-based complexes. Herein, we disclose a new version of asymmetric carbene C—H insertion reaction with rhodium(I) catalyst. A highly enantioselective rhodium(I) complex-catalyzed C(sp3)—H functionalization of 1,4-cyclohexadienes with α-aryl-α-diazoacetates was successfully developed. By using chiral bicyclo[2.2.2]-octadiene as ligand, rhodium(I)-carbene-induced asymmetric intermolecular C—H insertion proceeds smoothly at room temperature, allowing access to a diverse variety of α-aryl-α-cyclohexadienyl acetates and gem-diaryl-containing acetates in good yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). Furthermore, the synthetic utility of the reaction was highlighted by facile synthesis of a novel cannabinoid CB1 receptor ligand. This method may offer a new opportunity for the development of therapeutically exploitable cannabinoid receptor type ligands in medicinal chemistry.

We report the catalytic enantio- and diastereoselective preparation of aminocyclopropanes by the cyclopropanation of terminal and (Z)-internal 2-azadienes with donor/acceptor carbenes derived from α-diazoesters. The resulting cyclopropanes bear quaternary carbon stereogenic centers vicinal to the amino-substituted carbon and are formed as a single diastereomer in up to 99:1 er and 97% yield with 0.5 mol % of Rh2(DOSP)4 and only 1.5 equiv of the diazo reagent. Transformations with internal azadienes afford cyclopropanes with three contiguous stereogenic centers.
