[reaction: see text] Starting from (S)-glycidol, the asymmetric total synthesis of novel D-seco Corynanthe-type oxindoles Us-7 and Us-8 was accomplished. The structure of Us-7 was revised from the reported structure 1 with the (3R,7S) form to structure 22 with (3S,7R), and the absolute stereochemistry at C15 of both alkaloids was established.

The endoperoxide scaffold is found in numerous natural products and synthetic substances of pharmaceutical interest. The main challenge to their synthetic access remains the preparation of chiral compounds due to the weakness of the peroxide bond, which limits the scope of available or applicable methods. Here, we demonstrate how peroxycarbenium species can be trapped by silylated nucleophiles with high enantioselectivities and diastereoselectivities when applicable, using a chiral imidophosphorimidate (IDPi) as a catalyst.

ConspectusThe Mannich reaction, involving the nucleophilic addition of an enol(ate) intermediate to an imine or iminium ion, is one of the most widely used synthetic methods for the synthesis of β-amino carbonyl compounds. Nevertheless, the homo-Mannich reaction, which utilizes a homoenolate intermediate as the nucleophilic partner and provides straightforward access to the valuable γ-amino carbonyl compounds, remains underexplored. This can be largely attributed to the difficulties in generation and manipulation of the homoenolate species, despite various homoenolate equivalents that have been developed.

Background: Residual interlimb deficits after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) can lead to functional maladaptation and increase the risk of reinjury. The tuck jump assessment (TJA) may offer a more effective evaluation of ACLR status as compared with traditional tasks owing to increased risk of altered landing mechanics, asymmetrical landing, and increased knee valgus attributed to the cyclical nature of the task. However, it remains unclear whether altered TJA kinetics resolve over time or persist through return-to-play phases of rehabilitation.

Described herein is our computational study to rationalize the stereoselective epimerization of α,α'--disubstituted oxolane and oxetane ketones and to the corresponding α,α'- ketones and reported in our previous total syntheses of (+)-3-()-isolaureatin () and (+)-3-()-laureatin (). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations using appropriately truncated models revealed that the α,α'- ketones are more stable than the α,α'- ketones, in very good agreement with experimental results. The computational results showed that the isomer with a longer interatomic distance between the two ring oxygen atoms was lower in energy, which suggested the presence of repulsive interactions between those oxygen atoms.
