The stereoselective synthesis of a highly luminescent neutral Ir(III) complex comprising two bidentate chiral, cyclometalating phenylpyridine derivatives, and one acetylacetonate as ligands is described. The final complex and some intermediates were characterized by X-ray structural analysis, NMR-, CD-, and CPL-spectroscopy.

Monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) are an important class of nutrients and are involved in lipid metabolism. The positions of the C=C bond and cis-trans isomerism have a significant influence on their physiological activity. However, simultaneously detecting these two structural properties has been challenging due to multiple isomers of MUFA.

The [3 + 2] cycloaddition of dicyanoepoxides with benzylidene Meldrum's acid under microwave irradiation and solvent-free conditions was explored for the synthesis of trioxaspirodecanes. This method presents a highly diastereo- and regioselective route to spiro cycloadducts, delivering similar stereoselectivity to conventional reflux in toluene but with shorter reaction times and improved yields.

A straightforward synthesis of -dihydronaphthodioxine has been efficiently accomplished through Cu(II)-NHC catalysis, involving the stereoselective ring opening of -epoxides with quinoid-carbene. Intramolecular S2-like substitution facilitates the inversion of stereochemistry during -epoxide ring opening. This reaction has been developed under simple conditions, demonstrating a broad substrate scope with a wide chemoselective profile.

Flow chemistry has many advantages over batch synthesis of organic small-molecules in terms of environmental compatibility, safety and synthetic efficiency when scale-up is considered. Herein, we report the 10-step chemo-biocatalytic continuous flow asymmetric synthesis of cyproterone acetate (4) in which 10 transformations are combined into a telescoped flow linear sequence from commercially available 4-androstene-3, 17-dione (11). This integrated one-flow synthesis features an engineered 3-ketosteroid-Δ-dehydrogenase (ReM2)-catalyzed Δ-dehydrogenation to form the C1, C2-double bond of A ring, a substrate-controlled Co-catalyzed Mukaiyama hydration of 9 to forge the crucial chiral C17α-OH group of D ring with excellent stereoselectivity, and a rapid flow Corey-Chaykovsky cyclopropanation of 7 to build the cyclopropyl core of A ring.

Multiple Diels-Alder reactions are a powerful method to construct large asymmetric scaffolds, but these reactions often produce numerous isomers. We now report a triple Diels-Alder reaction between a cyclic furan trimer and -substituted maleimides, achieving selective synthesis of a single asymmetric tris-adduct. The stereoselectivity of cycloaddition to π-extended furan derivatives was clarified by the experimental analysis of intermediates and theoretical calculations.
