Abstract Despite the remarkable advances in research field of asymmetric catalytic oxidation reactions via hypervalent iodines with simple procedures, high level efficiency and stereoselectivity over past few decades, development their highly scalable, environmentally benign, sustainable protocols under greener organocatalysis paradigm for further industrial translations remains a long-standing synthetic organic chemistry process engineering challenge. Herein, we design synthesize new library conformationally flexible recyclable aryl iodine catalysts by utilization (i) waste (chloramphenicol base) as scaffold (ii) inexpensive amino acid residue (threonine) chiral source. Our iodine(III) bearing H-bond donors tunable pocket have been successfully applied diverse robust oxidative transformations, e.g., dearomatization, spirolactonization, direct C(sp 2 )−H/C(sp 3 )−H cross-coupling, fluoridation. processes feature column-isolation-free approach, easy-handling operation, upscaling synthesis, being facilely recycled particular precipitation.

Catalytic asymmetric dearomatization (CADA) is a powerful tool for the rapid construction of complex chiral three-dimensional cyclic molecules featuring quaternary carbon centers from readily available arenes. However, ubiquitous nonfunctionalized 1-naphthols to afford remains challenging and undeveloped. This study reports dearomative [4 + 1] spiroannulation via copper catalysis. reaction features highly chemo-, regio-, stereoselective nucleophilic addition intramolecular annulation cascade reactive π-extended copper-allenylidene, thus enabling practical synthesis range valuable spirocyclic enones bearing stereocenter with high efficiency. Furthermore, this protocol applicable phenols. Control experiments supported substitution-annulation mechanism by excluding process involving 1,3-sigmatropic shift. Preliminary biological activity studies indicated that synthesized hold significant promise as anticancer agents inducing tumor cell apoptosis.

Catalytic asymmetric dearomatization reactions of α-unsubstituted β-naphthols are very challenging due to the high energy barrier resulting from loss aromaticity. Herein, we describe an example enantioselective catalytic dearomative spiroannulation with yne-allylic esters. The success this reaction relied on copper-catalyzed remote strategy using esters as bis-electrophilic reagents. This transformation features mild conditions, broad functional group tolerance, and extensive substrate scope, thereby facilitating efficient construction array enantioenriched naphthalene-2-one spiroindolenine derivatives. Experimental studies density theory calculations establish pathway origin stereoselectivity.

Abstract Iodine and its hypervalent derivatives have emerged as versatile environmentally friendly oxidative reagents in organic synthesis, offering efficient ways to form new bonds. However, the use of iodine is challenging, they are unstable, potentially explosive, costly. Therefore, hypoiodite species derived from onium iodites using safe inexpensive oxidants considered more promising for facilitating transformations. Nevertheless, applications such catalytic systems still limited scope, especially asymmetric reactions. In this concept paper, we described recent progress chiral hypoiodite‐catalyzed enantioselective bond‐forming reactions, focusing on carbon–oxygen, carbon–nitrogen, carbon–carbon bond formation reactions ammonium guanidinium salts iodites.
