Studies towards the synthesis of hyperireflexolide A
The first approach to hyperireflexolide A, based on the synthesis of γ-lactone-fused cyclopentane 5, a functionalized key intermediate, is presented. Compound 5 is involved in hydrolysis, α-allylation at C-8 and α-methylation at C-10 stereoselectively ...

Transient [3,3] Cope rearrangement of 3,3-dicyano-1,5-dienes: computational analysis and 2-step synthesis of arylcycloheptanes. [PDF]
A simple and modular route to arylcycloheptene scaffolds is reported. The two-step route from Knoevenagel adducts and allylic electrophiles is made possible through the design of a Cope rearrangement that utilizes a "traceless" activating group to ...

A catalytic asymmetric total synthesis of (-)-perophoramidine [PDF]
We report a catalytic asymmetric total synthesis of the ascidian natural product perophoramidine. The synthesis employs a molybdenum-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation of an oxindole nucleophile and a monosubstituted allylic electrophile as a key ...

Pd‐Catalyzed C─C Bond Borylation of Biphenylenes Leading to Tri‐Ortho‐Substituted Biaryls
Palladium‐catalyzed ring‐opening C─C borylation of 1‐substituted biphenylenes yields a range of o,o,o′‐trisubstituted biaryls with two ortho‐boryl groups via selective cleavage of the least hindered C─C bond. The resulting diborylated products are readily amenable to sequential, site‐selective postfunctionalization.

The Catalytic Asymmetric Total Synthesis of Elatol [PDF]
Described in this report is the first total synthesis of elatol, a halogenated sesquiterpene in the chamigrene natural product family. The key disconnections in our synthetic approach include an enantioselective decarboxylative allylation to form the all-

Raising the Diversity of Ugi Reactions Through Selective Alkylations and Allylations of Ugi Adducts
We report here selective Tsuji-Trost type allylation of Ugi adducts using a strategy based on the enhanced nucleophilicity of amide dianions. Ugi adducts derived from aromatic aldehydes were easily allylated at their peptidyl position with allyl acetate ...

Rhodium-catalyzed oxidative C–H allylation of benzamides with 1,3-dienes by allyl-to-allyl 1,4-Rh(III) migration [PDF]
The Rh(III)-catalyzed oxidative C–H allylation of N-acetylbenzamides with 1,3-dienes is described. The presence of allylic hydrogens cis- to the less substituted alkene of the 1,3-diene is important for the success of these reactions. With the assistance

Bis(oxazolinyl)phenylrhodium(III) aqua complexes, (Phebox)RhX2(H2O) [X = Cl, Br], were found to be efficient Lewis acid catalysts for the enantioselective addition of allyl- and methallyltributyltin reagents to amino aldehydes.
