C'mon 1,2-dione: A new diastereo- and enantioselective Lewis base catalyzed domino Michael/aldol reaction converts alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes and 1,2-diones into chiral bicyclo[3.2.1]octane-6-carbaldehydes. The products are produced in good to excellent enantioselectivities (90-98 % ee) and can be transformed into bicyclic diols and triols. Additionally, a retro-aldol cyclization provides access to valuable tetrahydrochromenones (see scheme).

Highly substituted -hydrindanes were synthesized by the three-component coupling reactions of 1,3-diethyl 2-(2-oxopropylidene)propanedioate and two different α,β-unsaturated aldehydes catalyzed by diphenylprolinol silyl ether. The reaction proceeds two successive independent catalytic domino reactions in a one-pot reaction by a single chiral catalyst. Domino reactions involve Michael/Michael and Michael/aldol reactions to afford -hydrindanes with excellent diastereoselectivity and nearly optically pure form.

Michael-aldol domino reactions are powerful tools for rapidly assembling carbocyclic scaffolds. We herein disclose a base-catalyzed Michael-aldol domino reaction of trisubstituted Michael acceptors with β-keto ester nucleophiles. The cyclohexanone products are obtained in excellent diastereoselectivity (up to >20:1 dr) and good yields (up to 84%).

Catalytic and asymmetric domino Michael/aldol reaction of 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds with α,β-unsaturated ketones under the synergetic catalysis of chiral-at-metal rhodium complexes and pyrrolidine to deliver tertiary α-hydroxylation-cyclopentanones (45-89% yields with 81-99% ee and up to >20:1 dr) bearing three contiguous stereogenic centers had been established. Moreover, the scalability and practical utility of this protocol were well demonstrated by employing a gram-scale reaction and some representative transformations.

A highly enantio- and diastereoselective domino thia-Michael/aldol reaction applying 5-dibenzo[,][7]annulen-5-one as a Michael acceptor, catalyzed by a chiral phosphoric acid (CPA), has been developed. The bridged biaryl adduct contains multiple stereogenic centers in the bridging linkage as well as a thermodynamically controlled stereogenic axis. The energy difference between the two atropodiastereomers is about 9.
