We demonstrated a catalytic cascade inverse electron demand hetero-Diels-Alder reaction (Povarov reaction) and hydrogen-transfer process. The reaction of electron-rich olefins and excess amount of imines in the presence of acid catalysts under appropriate conditions affords substituted quinolines in a single operation. In the cascade process, the catalysts, such as Tf2NH, TfOH, and Lewis acids, catalyze two mechanistically distinct reactions (auto-tandem catalysis). We also describe the synthetic utility of the prepared quinolines.

As a class of readily available and multifunctional building blocks, the chemistry of 4-alken-2-ynyl carbonates remains to be explored. Presented herein is a palladium-catalysed cascade transformative reaction between 4-alken-2-ynyl carbonates and -functionalised activated alkenes. Achiral 1,1-bisalkyl-4-alken-2-ynyl carbonates undergo highly regioselective propargylic substitution with -hydroxyphenyl-tethered activated alkenes, and an auto-tandem vinylogous addition, unusual central-carbon Tsuji-Trost alkylation, protonation and β-H elimination process is followed to furnish fused and spirocyclic frameworks with high structural complexity.

The synthesis of bis-lactone and butenolide derivatives was described using alkylidene Meldrum's acid as nucleophiles. The process operates in a triple cascade through an auto tandem catalysis promoted by DBU.

An enantioselective addition reaction of alkynyl esters with imines was developed under asymmetric autotandem catalysis with a chiral Brønsted base. A chiral bis(guanidino)iminophosphorane organosuperbase, which has much higher basicity than that of conventional chiral organic bases, efficiently promoted both the intramolecular cyclization for the construction of a benzofuran ring or a benzothiophene ring and the sequential enantioselective direct Mannich-type reaction of diarylmethane derivatives, affording enantio-enriched diarylalkane derivatives that are otherwise difficult to access.

A palladium catalyzed tandem reaction between -functionalized aryl enones and 2,4-dienyl carbonates has been presented, proceeding through sequential 2,4-dienylation/Michael addition/π-σ-π isomerization/allylic alkylation. A broad array of enantioenriched architectures having fused and spirocyclic frameworks are constructed in moderate to excellent yields and stereoselectivity. Notably, the intrinsic intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction pattern of the dienylated intermediates is well reversed via Pd(0)-π-Lewis base catalysis.

σ-Lewis base-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) reaction of α,β,γ,δ-unsaturated systems remains a challenge due to the intrinsic covalent activation mode. Here we demonstrate that a Pd complex can mediate the dehydrogenative reaction of γ,δ-unsaturated compounds to give corresponding electron-poor dienes, which further undergo δ-regioselective umpolung Friedel-Crafts-type addition to imines via auto-tandem Pd -π-Lewis base catalysis. After β-H elimination of in situ formed Pd -complexes, unprecedented and chemically inverse aza-MBH-type adducts are finally furnished with fair to outstanding enantioselectivity, and a diversity of functional groups and both ketimine and aldimine acceptors can be well tolerated.
