Asymmetric Csp3–Csp3 bond formation has been a grand pursuit in synthetic chemistry. The regioselective and enantioselective hydroalkylation of 1,3-diene emerged as an appealing approach for constructing chiral allylic bonds. However, this method is presently confined to the use stabilized Csp3 nucleophilic substrates. Herein, we present nickel-catalyzed asymmetric 1,3-dienes with simple unstabilized alkyl carbanion enabled by naturally abundant carbonyls' umpolung under mild reaction conditions. A range alkylated compounds were generated good high yields (up 96%), enantiomeric ratio (er) up 98:2 form bond. protocol applicable heterocycles, polyenes, unsaturated hydrazones well late-stage functionalization various complex pharmaceuticals. Density functional theory calculations elucidated mechanism enantioselectivity reaction. An enantiocontrol model also proposed, emphasizing crucial role NHC ligand facilitating reaction, revealed two-layer two-dimensional (2D) contour maps.

Direct synthesis of gem-difluorinated carbocyclic molecules represents a longstanding challenge in organic chemistry. Herein, Rh-catalyzed [3+2] cycloaddition reaction between readily available cyclopropanes (gem-DFCPs) and internal olefins has been developed, enabling the efficient cyclopentanes with good functional group compatibility, excellent regioselectivity diastereoselectivity. The resulting products can undergo downstream transformations to access various mono-fluorinated cyclopentenes cyclopentanes. This demonstrates use gem-DFCPs as type "CF2 " C3 synthon for under transition metal catalysis, which provides potential strategy synthesizing other molecules.

Abstract The use of gem ‐difluorinated cyclopropanes ( ‐DFCPs) as fluoroallyl surrogates under transition‐metal catalysis has drawn considerable attention recently but such reactions are restricted to producing achiral or racemic mono‐fluoroalkenes. Herein, we report the first enantioselective allylation indoles rhodium with ‐DFCPs. This reaction shows exceptional branched regioselectivity towards ‐DFCPs, which provides an efficient route enantioenriched fluoroallylated wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance.

A novel enantioselective Tsuji-Trost-type cross coupling reaction between gem-difluorinated cyclopropanes and N-unprotected amino acid esters enabled by synergistic Pd/Ni/chiral aldehyde catalysis is presented herein. This transformation streamlined the diversity-oriented synthesis (DOS) of optically active α-quaternary α-amino bearing a linear 2-fluoroallylic motif, which served as an appealing platform for construction other valuable enantioenriched compounds. The key intermediates were confirmed HRMS detection, while DFT calculations revealed that excellent enantioselectivity was attributed to stabilizing non-covalent interactions Pd(II)-π-fluoroallyl species Ni(II)-Schiff base complex.

The investigation into the synthesis of azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes (azaBCHeps) as bioisosteres to flat aza-aromatics has garnered increasing attention, while it encounters significant challenges. Herein, we have demonstrated In(OTf)3-catalyzed (3 + 3) dipolar cyclization bicyclo[1.1.0]butanes (BCBs) with hydrazones and π-allyl-iridium 1,3-dipoles, engendering a diverse array azaBCHeps. BCBs furnished densely substituted 2,3-diazabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes 2,3-diazabicyclo[3.1.1]heptenes under nitrogen oxygen atmospheres, respectively. A combination experimental computational investigations lends robust support for proton-transfer-interposed sequential mechanism. More importantly, by integrating In(OTf)3/iridium relay catalysis, enantiopure 2-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes were constructed through aza-π-allyl-iridium in situ generated from N-allyl carbonates. Both methodologies exhibit mild reaction conditions good tolerance various functional groups. Moreover, copious derivatization products highlights utility newly synthesized heterobicyclic motifs versatile building blocks synthetic chemistry.
