The synthesis of 3-(aminoalkyl)coumarins starting with a platinum/scandium-cocatalyzed oxidative dehydrogenation of α,β-C(sp(3))-H bonds of tertiary amines in the presence of ambient oxygen followed by reactions with substituted salicylaldehydes is revealed. The in situ formed enamines reacted with various salicylaldehydes, which resulted in the development of a one-pot synthetic protocol involving aldol reaction, cyclization, and then ring-opening.

Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Enantioselective Ring Opening of Oxabenzonorbornadienes via Domino Aminopalladation of Alkynylanilines.

We report herein a robust enantioselective ring opening coupling of oxabenzonorbornadienes via Pd(II)-catalyzed domino cyclization of alkynylanilines, which features the formation of three covalent bonds and two contiguous stereocenters with excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivity and a broad substrate scope. The good functional group tolerance of this domino desymmetrization strategy enables efficient late-stage transformation of natural product-derived alkynylanilines. The resulting indolated dihydronaphthols could serve as a valuable platform to streamline the diversity-oriented synthesis of other valuable enantioenriched tetrahydronaphthalene derivatives.

Novel tetrahydroisoquinoline and piperidine derivatives were selectively synthesized from substituted indenes or cyclopentenes. The process starts with an oxidative cleavage of the ring olefin bond, which gives reactive diformyl intermediates. By a ring-closing step using chiral (R) or (S) α-methylbenzylamine under a reductive amination protocol facilitated ring formation with ring expansion of the corresponding nitrogen-containing heterocycles.

Aromatic compounds are used across chemistry and materials science as a result of their stability, characteristic interactions, defined molecular shape and the numerous synthetic approaches for their synthesis by a diversity of cyclization reactions. In contrast, the cleavage of inert aromatic carbon-carbon bonds remained largely unfeasible due to the unfavourable energetics of disrupting aromaticity on ring opening. For non-aromatic structures, alkene metathesis catalysed by transition metal alkylidenes is established as one of the most versatile carbon-carbon bond-forming and breaking reactions.

An unexpected cascade reaction of enyne-amides with sulfur-ylides has been developed. This cascade reaction involves cycloisomerization, dearomatic cyclopropanation, ring-opening rearomatization, and subsequent cyclopropanation, differing from the common [2 + n] cyclization of enyne-amides. A variety of (spirocyclopropane)dihydrofuran derivatives have been efficiently and conveniently synthesized in a single vessel, exhibiting excellent diastereoselectivity and good functional group tolerance.

In this report, we detail two distinct synthetic approaches to calyciphylline A-type alkaloids himalensine A and daphenylline, which are inspired by our analysis of the structural complexity of these compounds. Using MolComplex, a Python-based web application that we have developed, we quantified the structural complexity of all possible precursors resulting from one-bond retrosynthetic disconnections. This led to the identification of transannular bonds as especially simplifying to the molecular graph, and, based on this analysis, we pursued a total synthesis of himalensine A from macrocyclic intermediates with planned late-stage transannular ring formations.
