Abstract Dual catalysis is one of the most powerful strategies for development chemical reactions in organic synthesis. This strategy can be divided into cooperative catalysis, relay and sequential according to actual mode operation communication between catalysts. In recent years, such has been applied a large number studies since it advantages of: 1) increasing reactivity enabling challenging transformations; 2) offering way controlling stereoselectivity asymmetric reactions, which traditional catalytic systems; 3) catalyze stereodivergent synthesis molecules bearing or more stereocenters from same starting materials. Perspective, intends introduce reader EurJOC special collection on Catalysis , aims summarize different categories dual demonstrate their benefits constructing new bonds selective manner.

Multicatalysis is an emerging field targeting the development of efficient catalytic transformations to quickly convert relatively simple starting materials into more complex value-added products. Within multicatalytic processes either multiple catalysts execute single reactions or precise sequences occur in a "one-pot" fashion. Attractively, protocols not only enable that are inaccessible through classic approaches but also able significantly reduce time, waste, and cost synthetic processes, making organic synthesis resources efficient. In this Perspective article, we review different strategies multicatalysis bring distinct challenges opportunities. We divide overarching three main categories: cooperative, domino, relay catalysis. Each category described along with representative examples highlight its features. Special emphasis dedicated catalysis, which further discussed subcategories. Lastly, provide analysis systems incorporate higher levels complexity underscore potential systems.

In contrast to the widely explored methods for asymmetric synthesis of molecules bearing a single stereocenter or adjacent stereocenters, concurrent construction 1,3-stereogenic centers in an enantio- and diastereoselective manner remains challenge, especially acyclic systems. Herein, we report diastereodivergent 1,3-nonadjacent stereocenters allenyl axial central chirality through synergistic Pd/Cu-catalyzed dynamic kinetic allenylation with racemic allenylic esters. The protocol is suitable wide range substrates including challenging esters less sterically bulky substituents provided chiral products high levels diastereoselectivities (up >20:1 dr >99% ee). Furthermore, several representative transformations involving axial-to-central transfer were conducted, affording useful structural motifs containing nonadjacent manner.

Metal-hydride-catalyzed hydroalkylation of 1,3-dienes with enolizable carbonyl compounds is an atom- and step-economical method for preparing chiral molecules allylic stereocenters. Although high diastereo- enantioselectivities have been achieved many coupling partners, aldehydes not yet used this purpose because they are less stable than other under basic conditions the potential to rapidly epimerize at α-position. Moreover, stereodivergent reactions access complementary diastereomers vicinal stereocenters challenging.
