The rapid synthesis of bicyclo[m.n.1]alkanone cores possessing quaternary carbon centers adjacent to a bridged ketone represents a significant synthetic challenge. This type of architectural feature is embedded in various complex biologically active compounds such as hyperforin and garsubellin A. Herein, we report a highly diastereoselective one-pot Diels-Alder reaction/Au(I)-catalyzed carbocyclization to generate bicyclo[3.3.1]alkanones in yields ranging from 48-93%.

In this study, we extended a previously developed one-pot double derivatization reaction to establish the first routine isotope-coded multiplex derivatization for vitamin D and its metabolites for application in clinical environments, using commercial reagents, without the need for specialized reagents and advanced synthesis requirements. The original derivatization process consisted of using both a Cookson-type reagent and derivatization of hydroxyl groups. Initially, the analytes are derivatized by a Diels-Alder reaction using 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD), followed by acetylation using acetic anhydride, catalyzed by 4-dimethylaminopyridine at room temperature.

Due to the importance of biaryls as natural products, drugs, agrochemicals, dyes, or organic electronic materials, a green alternative biaryl synthesis has been developed based on easy-to-prepare and cheap copper(I)-exchanged zeolite catalysts. Cu-USY proved to efficiently catalyze the direct homocoupling of either phenols or aryl boronic acids under simple and practical conditions. The Cu-USY-catalyzed oxidative homocoupling of phenols could conveniently be performed under air either in warm methanol or water with good to high yields.

Polymers synthesized with end-of-life consideration allow for recovery and reprocessing. "Living-anionic polymerization (LAP)" and hydrosilylation reaction were utilized to synthesize hair-end furan functionalized hairy nanoparticles (HNPs) with a hard polystyrene (PS) core and soft polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) hairs via a one-pot approach. The synthesis was carried out by first preparing the living core through crosslinking styrene with divinylbenzene using sec-butyl lithium, followed by the addition of the hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane (D3) monomer to the living core.

A one-pot synthesis of ring-fused, α-hydrazineyl-2-cyclopentenone derivatives is achieved by a gold(I)-catalyzed Rautenstrauch/hetero Diels-Alder/ring opening tandem reaction of suitable propargyl esters. By mixing the latter with a dialkylazodicarboxylate in the presence of a gold(I) catalyst, the 1,2-acyloxy migration/cyclization process (Rautenstrauch reaction) leads to cyclopentadienyl ester intermediates which are trapped by the heterodienophile present in situ. This provides strained intermediates which spontaneously undergo highly regioselective ring opening by a retro aza-Michael reaction promoted by the gold(I) catalyst, eventually yielding the target compounds.

Total syntheses of borolithochromes H1, H2, I1, and I2, the red pigments isolated from fossils of Jurassic putative red alga Solenopora jurassica, have been achieved. The naphthoquinone possessing a chiral sec-butyl side chain has been synthesized from (S)-2-methylbutanol. The Diels-Alder reaction of the chiral naphthoquinone and the previously reported diene was followed by one pot S-methylation/intramolecular Corey-Chaykovsky reaction/epoxide rearrangement to provide the benzo[gh]tetraphene skeleton.
