The vicinal fluorofunctionalization of alkenes represents an expedient strategy for converting feedstock olefins into valuable fluorinated molecules and as such has garnered significant attention from the synthetic community; however, current methods remain limited in terms of scope and selectivity. Here we report the site-selective palladium-catalyzed three-component coupling of alkenylbenzaldehydes, arylboronic acids, and N-fluoro-2,4,6-trimethylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate facilitated by a transient directing group. The synthetically enabling methodology constructs vicinal stereocenters with excellent regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivities, forging products that map onto bioactive compounds.

The Br?nsted acidic resorcin[4]arene hexamer can be applied as an effective catalyst in the dehydrative cyclization and subsequent rearrangement of unsaturated tertiary alcohols. This is the first report on catalyzing such a reaction with a Br?nsted acid. Scope and limitations of this cyclopentene-forming reaction sequence are presented. Furthermore, substrate-selective conversion as well as competitive inhibition are described and provide evidence that the reactions proceed within the cavity of the self-assembled structure. Additionally, a cyclobutanone-forming intramolecular hydride transfer of an encapsulated cyclopropyl acetate is reported. (Figure presented.).
Exploiting the Biginelli reaction: Nitrogen-rich pyrimidine-based tercyclic α-helix mimetics

Several rationally designed pyrimidine-based scaffolds intended to mimic the spatial projection of the i, i+3, and i+7 residues of an α-helix and also possess improved aqueous solubility were prepared. A Biginelli-oxidation process was used to form the central pyrimidine ring of these scaffolds, which was subsequently manipulated to form pyrimidine-based tercyclic α-helix mimetics. A pyrimidine-based scaffold designed to mimic the α-helical BH3 domain of the pro-apoptotic Bak protein was also prepared as a putative inhibitor of the Bcl-xL/Bak protein-protein interaction. The pyrimidine-based tercyclic α-helix mimetics, and the putative Bcl-xL inhibitor, were assessed using a luminescence competition assay, however, none displayed inhibitory activity against Bcl-xL or Mcl-1.
