A highly efficient and chemo-, regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselective organocatalytic tandem conjugate reduction-Michael cyclization of enal enones has been developed. Accordingly, treating the enal enone with a Hantzsch dihydropyridine in the presence of a catalytic amount of an imidazolidinone organocatalyst provides cyclic keto aldehydes in high yields and enantiomeric excesses. The reaction works well with aliphatic and aromatic substrates in the synthesis of five- and six-membered carbacyclic derivatives.

The range of chemical databases available has dramatically increased in recent years, but the reliability and quality of their data are often negatively affected by human-error fidelity. The size of chemical databases can make manual data curation/checking of such sets time consuming; thus, automated tools to help this process are highly desirable. Herein, we propose the use of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to identifying potential stereochemical misassignments in the primary asymmetric catalysis literature.

In organic synthesis, the solvent is the chemical compound that represents the largest proportion of the process. However, conventional solvents are often toxic and dangerous for the environment, and an interesting alternative is to replace them by water. In this context, catalyst surfactants allow both organic reagents in water to be solubilized and organic reactions to be catalyzed.

However, the genotype-phenotype correlations and the underlying pathogenic mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Axial chiral biaryl skeletons are widely found in biologically active molecules, catalysts and chiral functional materials. However, highly catalytic stereoselective synthesis of tetra-ortho-substituted biaryls remains a challenging task. In this paper, we describe an efficient approach for construction of axially tetra-ortho-substituted biaryls via Suzuki-Miyaura coupling in the presence of a chiral monophosphate ligand developed by ourselves.
