Tandem reactions that proceed with a single metal catalyst precursor offer novel opportunities for developing efficient new reaction sequences. In this regard, reaction conditions have been identified that allows for a tandem ring-closing metathesis-olefin isomerization sequence catalyzed by a common ruthenium precursor. Specifically, the tandem process generates cyclic enol ethers from a variety of readily available acyclic dienes in a single reaction vessel using Grubbs' ruthenium alkylidene.

In this study we report on the efficiency of a furane-indole-chromenone-based organic derivative () as a photocatalyst in the α-arylation of enol acetate upon LED irradiation at 405 nm, and as a photoinitiator/photocatalyst in the free radical polymerization of an acrylate group in the presence of -(4--butylphenyl)iodonium hexafluorophosphate (Iod) as an additive, or in the presence of both Iod and ethyl-4-(dimethyl amino) benzoate (EDB) under LED irradiation at 365 nm. The photochemical properties of this new light-sensitive compound are described, and the wide redox window (3.27 eV) and the high excited-state potentials / (+2.

Farnesyl pyrophosphate derivatives bearing an additional oxygen atom at position 5 proved to be very suitable for expanding the substrate promiscuity of sesquiterpene synthases (STSs) and the formation of new oxygenated terpenoids. Insertion of an oxygen atom in position 9, however, caused larger restraints that led to restricted acceptance by STSs. In order to reduce some of the proposed restrictions, two FPP-ether derivatives with altered substitution pattern around the terminal olefinic double bond were designed.

Plantaginis Semen is a traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) commonly used in clinical practice in China, which has the effects of clearing heat, inducing diuresis for treating stranguria, draining dampness and relieving diarrhea, brightening eyes, and eliminating phlegm. Plantaginis Semen has a long history of processing. In the Han Dynasty, there were records of stir-frying, and then processing with wine, processing with salt water, processing with rice water, and other processing methods appeared.

A highly efficient enol-Ugi reaction of β,β-diketoamides has been developed using a novel non-heterocyclic amide-stabilised enol. This approach enables a broad reaction scope, affording β-enaminoamide peptidomimetics with constrained conformations due to CH-π interaction and C(sp)H⋯O hydrogen bonding. Notably, the use of a five-membered cyclic enol is crucial for achieving stable products in excellent yields.
