The products from dirhodium(II) acetate-catalyzed reactions between diazocarbonyl compounds and a series of benzaldehydes demonstrate the extent of competition between intramolecular and intermolecular trapping of carbonyl ylide intermediates and the electronic effects that govern these transformations. With dimethyl diazomalonate, competition exists between dioxolane and epoxide formation so that with p-anisaldehyde only epoxide formation is observed and with p-nitrobenzaldehyde only 1,3-dioxolane products are formed. With methyl diazoacetoacetate, intramolecular trapping of the intermediate carbonyl ylide results in the sole production of dioxolenes. However, the vinyldiazoacetate analogue of methyl diazoacetoacetate, as its tert-butyldimethlsilyloxy derivative, only produces epoxides in its reactions with substituted benzaldehydes.

Cu(II)-Catalyzed Annulative Sulfonylimination of α-Carbonyl-γ-alkynyl Sulfoxonium Ylides through Sulfoxonium Ylide Elimination for Access to ()-1-Isochromenes.

1-Isochromene scaffolds are ubiquitous in natural products and significant bioactive molecules. Although several methods for these molecular syntheses have been developed, reports on the efficient construction of iminated isochromenes are still rather limited. Herein, we report a new Cu(II)-catalyzed annulation and sulfonylimination cascade of α-carbonyl-γ-alkynyl sulfoxonium ylides with sulfamides, enabling direct C-C σ-bond elimination to furnish iminated ()-1-isochromenes in 51-97% yields.

Herein, we present a visible-light-induced protocol for the synthesis of highly functionalized oxo-bridged oxocine skeletons. This method generates carbenes via visible-light-induced ortho-acyl diazo compounds, which are rapidly intercepted by the oxygen atom of an intermolecular acyl group to form a cyclic 1,3-dipole. The in situ generated highly reactive 1,3-dipole undergoes a facile formal [4 + 3] cycloaddition with alkenyl pyrazolinone, yielding [4.

A novel study on the hypervalent iodine-mediated polyfluoroalkylation of sulfoxonium ylides was developed. Sulfoxonium ylides, known for their versatility and stability, are promising substrates for numerous transformations in synthetic chemistry. This report demonstrates the successful derivatization of sulfoxonium ylides with trifluoroethyl or tetrafluoropropyl groups, and provides valuable insights into the scope and limitations of this approach.

Geminal bromofluoroalkenes are an important subclass of versatile organic interhalide, which can serve as useful synthetic precursors to monofluoroalkenes that are valuable amide group isosteres. Nonetheless, despite the vast advancement of olefination methodologies, the broadly applicable stereoselective synthesis remained elusive for geminal bromofluoroalkenes before our work. In particular, the seemingly straightforward Wittig-type approach with interhalogenated phosphorus ylide has been unsuccessful because of the difficulty in the diastereoselective oxaphosphetane formation.

The cascade carbon-carbon and carbon-nitrogen bond formation between generated carbonyl ylides and azaoxyallyl cations, facilitated by Rh-catalysis and a base, has been achieved to furnish oxa-benzo[]azepin-3-ones. Substrate scope, functional group diversity, scale-up and post-synthetic utilities are the important practical features.
