N-Protected beta-amino aldehydes have been prepared starting from imines through a sequence involving a Zn-mediated direct alkynylation followed by a Ru-catalyzed anti-Markovnikov alkyne hydration. The rate and the efficiency of the latter reaction are enhanced by the use of microwave irradiation. The possibility to carry out a one-pot Ru-catalyzed hydration/oxidation process from a terminal alkyne to a carboxylic acid was demonstrated, which provided direct access to a N-protected beta-amino acid from the corresponding terminal alkyne.

The β-amino ketones produced through the Mannich reaction hold significant potential as candidates for various drugs. In this study, we optimized on-DNA Mannich reaction conditions and applied them to investigate the reactions of DNA-conjugated aldehydes with various amine and ketone building blocks. The developed on-DNA Mannich reaction preserved the DNA integrity and established viable routes for library production.

A N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed (NHC) three-component reaction involving -aminopyridinium salts, alkenes, and aldehydes for the synthesis of β-amino ketones is described. In this reaction, -aminopyridinium salts and the Breslow intermediate, which is generated from NHC and aldehydes, are utilized to undergo a single-electron transfer process, forming a ketyl radical intermediate and amidyl radicals. Subsequent to the formation of the amidyl radical, it undergoes selective capture by alkenes, followed by radical cross-coupling to yield the desired β-amino ketones.

An organocatalytic enantioselective alkylation of α,α-disubstituted aldehydes with 3-bromooxindoles is reported. Enantioenriched oxindoles with vicinal quaternary stereocenters are accessed by an asymmetric conjugate addition process of branched aldehydes with -azaxylylene intermediates (indol-2-ones). Key to the success of highly diastereo- and enantioselective transformations is the combined use of a triphenylsilyl-protected β-amino alcohol catalyst derived from the spiropyrrolidine scaffold and 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid.

The asymmetric cross-coupling of unsaturated bonds, hampered by their comparable polarity and reactivity, as well as the scarcity of efficient catalytic systems capable of diastereo- and enantiocontrol, presents a significant hurdle in organic synthesis. In this study, we introduce a highly adaptable photochemical cobalt catalysis framework that facilitates chemo- and stereoselective reductive cross-couplings between common aldehydes with a broad array of carbonyl and iminyl compounds, including -acylhydrazones, aryl ketones, aldehydes, and α-keto esters. Our methodology hinges on a synergistic mechanism driven by photoredox-induced single-electron reduction and subsequent radical-radical coupling, all precisely guided by a chiral cobalt catalyst.
