Application of Hosomi-Sakurai allylation reaction in total synthesis of biologically active natural products [PDF]

Frontiers in Chemistry
The Hosomi–Sakurai allylation reaction has been widely applied in the total synthesis of biologically active natural products, especially in synthesising complex polycyclic compounds containing multi-stereogenic centres since its discovery in 1976.

Transition-metal-free allylation of 2-azaallyls with allyl ethers through polar and radical mechanisms

Nature Communications, 2021
Allylation of nucleophiles with less reactive electrophiles, such as carbonates, usually requires a transition-metal catalyst. Here, the authors show a transition-metal-free allylation strategy with allyl ether electrophiles to form homoallylic amine ...

Synthesis of Novel Crown Ether-Squaramides and Their Application as Phase-Transfer Catalysts

Molecules, 2021
This work presents the synthesis of six new phase-transfer organocatalysts in which the squaramide unit is directly linked to the nitrogen atom of an aza-crown ether.

Copper(I)-catalyzed asymmetric 1,6-conjugate allylation

Nature Communications, 2020
Catalytic asymmetric conjugate allylation of unsaturated carbonyl compounds is usually difficult to achieve due to competing 1,2-addition. Here, the authors report a copper(I)-catalyzed asymmetric 1,6-conjugate allylation of 2,2-dimethyl-6-alkenyl-4H-1,3-

Generation and Reactions of ε-Carbonyl Cations via Group 13 Catalysis

Molecules, 2022
The generation of ε-carbonyl cations and their reactions with nucleophiles is accomplished readily without transition metal cation stabilization, using the ε-bromide dienoate or dienone starting materials and GaCl3 or InCl3 catalysis.

Flavin Catalysts in Organic Synthesis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Flavins and their congeners are potent catalysts for organic synthesis inspired by enzymatic transformations. In addition to catalysis in the flavin ground state via covalent intermediates, the excited singlet and triplet states unlock applications including photooxidation, photoreduction, and energy transfer via sensitization.
