A dual photocatalytic system of o‐PQ and Sn(OTf)2 enables visible light‐induced Mannich‐type addition of ethers to nitrones via Csp³–H activation. This oxidant‐free method offers broad scope and good yields. Mechanistic studies suggest that a photoexcited o‐PQ–Sn(II) complex mediates hydrogen atom transfer to form α‐oxy radicals for nitrone addition. A

Catalytic enantioselective construction of axial chirality in 1,3-disubstituted allenes
Highly enantioselective synthesis of allenes has been relying, so far, on the steric hindrance of substrates. Here the authors achieve excellent stereocontrol in the synthesis of chiral allenes with a palladium-DTBM-SEGPHOS catalytic system in a non ...

Chiral potassium base catalysts featuring 1,1´‐bi‐2‐naphthol‐derived chiral crown ethers as ligands promote a tandem allylic isomerization/asymmetric aldol‐Tishchenko reaction of allylic alcohols and aldehydes. This method provides enantioenriched 1,3‐diols with excellent diastereoselectivity and high enantioselectivity, thereby expanding the synthetic
