Organocatalytic Formal (3+2+1)‐Cycloaddition of Allenoates, Michael Acceptors, and Carbaldehydes
The use of secondary amine Lewis base organocatalysts allows for the unprecedented activation of allenoates for formal (3+2+1)‐cycloadditions with Michael acceptors and aromatic carbaldehydes. ABSTRACT Employing secondary amines as covalently interacting Lewis basic organocatalysts allows for the activation of electron‐deficient allenes (allenoates ...

Quinolin‐4‐ones were converted to chloroquinolinium salts, allowing formation of axially chiral aminoquinolinium salts via an enantioretentive SNAr reaction with a variety of amine nucleophiles. The salts have a high rotational barrier, with a racemization half‐life of ∼1000s of years.

Nitrooxylation—the installation of nitrate esters (–ONO2) has evolved from classical mixed‐acid protocols to catalytic and mechano‐, flow‐, photo‐, and electrochemical strategies. This review delineates ionic and radical manifolds for C–ONO2 bond formation, emphasizing mechanistic control, selected substrate scope, and selectivity.

Stereochemical Control in the Matteson Reaction
The Matteson homologation is a highly versatile method for the stereoselective insertion of carbenoids into boronic esters. Through iterative application of the process, complex chiral molecules can be synthesized. The stereoselectivity of the reaction is determined by a chiral diol incorporated in the boronic ester.

Cyclopropylamines have emerged as powerful photocatalytic building blocks. Upon light‐induced single‐electron oxidation, they undergo strain‐release ring opening to generate distonic iminium radicals that enable diverse transformations, including ring‐opening functionalization, formal [3 + 2] cycloadditions, radical cascades, and asymmetric bond ...

Chiral Pyrazolinylidene Complexes for Asymmetric Catalysis
The synthesis and application of pyrazolin‐5‐ylidene NHC chiral‐at‐ruthenium catalysts is reported. The strong donating pyrazolin‐5‐ylidene ligands led to highly electron rich ruthenium complexes, which showed excellent catalytic activity and enantioselectivity in the intramolecular aziridination of an alkene.

The Mechanism of Visible‐Light Photochemical Rearrangements of Conjugated Amide Enolates
Visible light irradiation of extended enolates of N‐benzylamides leads to homolytic C─N Bond cleavage, generating a biradical. Computational and mechanistic studies suggest rapid radical recombination within a solvent cage to give either ring‐expanded or rearranged products. ABSTRACT Deprotonation of conjugated amides forms colored solutions of lithium

Several new chiral cyclic hypervalent iodine(III) reagents have been synthesized and characterized. Carbon‐based ligands were successfully installed onto the hypervalent iodine centers, giving thus access to novel chiral cyano‐, trifluoromethyl‐ or alkynyl‐bearing λ3‐iodanes.

Enantioenriched α‐substituted primary amines are efficiently prepared by rhodium‐catalyzed asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ortho‐hydroxyaryl N─H imines under mild conditions using a low catalyst loading and ammonium formate as the hydrogen source in high yields (up to 99%) and enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee).
