A new transformation pattern for enantioselective intramolecular hydroacylation has been developed involving an alkene isomerization strategy. Proceeding through a five-membered rhodacycle intermediate, 3-enals were converted to C3- or C3,C5-chirogenic cyclopentanones with satisfactory yields, diastereoselectivities, and enantioselectivities. A catalytic cycle has been theoretically calculated and the origin of the stereoselection is rationally explained.

A practical, convenient, and highly selective method of synthesizing β-ketonitriles from the Pd-catalyzed addition of organoboron reagents to dinitriles has been developed. This method provides excellent functional-group tolerance, a broad scope of substrates, and the convenience of using commercially available substrates. The method is expected to show further utility in future synthetic procedures.

An unexpected domino process from Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates of isatins and acrylate and α-cyano-α,β-unsaturated ketones to deliver highly enantioenriched tetrahydrofuro[2′,3′:4,5]pyrano[2,3-b]indoles catalysed by cinchona-derived tertiary amines, involving α-regioselective cyclopropanation, ring-opening, and ring-closure cascade reactions, was disclosed. In contrast, spirooxindoles incorporating a cyclopentene motif were produced through [3+2] annulations by employing Morita-Baylis-Hillman carbonates from isatins and acrylonitrile under similar catalytic conditions. Density functional theory calculations were conducted to elucidate the novel domino process and the switchable annulation reactions.
