[reaction: see text] 2-Deoxy-C-aryl glycosides are potential synthetic targets as they form a very vital moiety of several biologically active natural products. This paper describes a synthetic route using an umpolung strategy, which has not been explored till date. Our synthetic endeavor led to a versatile intermediate aryl ketone 10, which has paved the way for two important classes of C-glycosides, viz., C-alkyl furanosides 12 and methyl 2-deoxy-C-aryl pyranosides 14.

Versatile P-N and P-O bond-forming reactions by an umpolung approach using air- and moisture-stable hydroxymethylphosphine sulfides were developed. Phosphine sulfides containing multiple hydroxymethyl groups could undergo sequential transformations combining P-N and P-O as well as P-C bond formations, providing a novel protocol for the synthesis of a variety of organophosphorus(V) compounds with P-N and P-O bonds.

Asymmetric catalytic versions of electricity-driven processes hold immense potential for the sustainable preparation of chiral compounds. However, the involvement of anodic oxidative cross-dehydrogenative coupling events between two distinct nucleophiles makes it challenging for a chiral catalyst to regulate the stereochemistry of the products. Our current electrocatalytic strategy for enantioconvergent cross-dehydrogenative α- and γ-nitroalkylation via radical-based pathways produces an array of enantioenriched nitroesters without supplementary stoichiometric oxidants.

Visible light-induced radical umpolung chemistry is utilized to synthesize trifluoromethylated unnatural α-amino acid and amine derivatives. This approach utilizes photoredox catalysis to perform a single-electron-transfer reduction of imines generating a N-centred radical that eventually migrates to the C-centre followed by a radical-radical cross-coupling to deliver reductive trifluoromethylation products.

The umpolung of aldimines using N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) is less explored compared to the established polarity reversal of aldehydes. Described herein is an NHC-catalyzed imine umpolung /6π-electrocyclization cascade, which leads to the atom- and pot-economic synthesis of biologically important dihydrochromeno indoles. For the first time, the nucleophilic aza-Breslow intermediates have been intercepted with unactivated alkynes.

Phosphorylated tyrosine is a fundamental building block of bioactive peptides and proteins. However, the chemoselective phosphorylation of tyrosine over other nucleophilic amino acid residues in unprotected peptides remains a significant challenge. Here we report an umpolung strategy that converts the C-terminal tyrosine into an electrophilic spirolactone cyclohexadienone motif through hypervalent iodine oxidation, followed by a 1,2-phospha-Brook rearrangement using phosphite diesters as nucleophilic phosphoryl donors.
