Transition metal carbenes have emerged as versatile intermediates for various types of alkylations. While reactions carbene species with alkenes been extensively studied, most examples focus on cyclopropanation and allylic C-H insertion. Herein, we present the first example a catalytic strategy carbene-involved regioselective remote alkylation internal olefins by synergistically combining two iridium-mediated reactivities olefin chain walking carbenoid migratory The method, utilizing sulfoxonium ylides bench-stable robust precursor, was found to be effective series tethered alkyl chains, heteroatom substituents, complex biorelevant moieties. Combined experimental computational studies revealed that reversible iridium hydride-mediated proceeds lead terminal alkyl-Ir intermediate, which then forms final insertion, resulting in terminal-alkylated products.

Abstract We report the helicoselective and convergent construction of indolohelicenoids with excellent efficiency stereocontrol. This reaction proceeds through a chiral‐phosphoric‐acid‐catalyzed enantioselective cycloaddition eliminative aromatization sequence, which can be finely controlled by adjusting temperature. Mechanistic studies reveal that chiral phosphoric acid cooperatively serves as both bifunctional Brønsted catalyst, enabling one‐pot central‐to‐helical chirality conversion. Additionally, optical properties synthesized were characterized to explore their potential applications in organic photoelectric materials.

A fluorescence quantum yield up to 65 % was observed, chiroptical properties both P-helicenes revealed large dissymmetry factors. circularly polarized luminescence brightness reaches 17 M-1 cm-1 , as measured experimentally verified computationally, which makes this highest among helicenes. how (both circular dichroism luminescence) can be described predicted using chemical calculations. approach also reveals by-products that originate from internal oxidation reactions, presumably mediated close proximity π-surfaces in helicene structure.
