We recently reported a chiral phosphoric acid (CPA) catalyzed enantioselective photomediated ring contraction of piperidines and other saturated heterocycles. By extruding a single heteroatom from a ring, this transformation builds desirable C(sp)-C(sp) bonds in the ring contracted products; however, the origins of enantioselectivity remain poorly understood. In this work, enantioselectivity of the ring contraction has been explored across an expanded structurally diverse substrate scope, revealing a wide range of enantioselectivities (0-99%) using two distinct CPA catalysts.

An iron-catalyzed nitrene transfer reaction for the rapid synthesis of sulfinamidines from readily available sulfenamides is reported. This method features mild conditions, short reaction times, and a broad substrate scope, allowing the preparation of a variety of sulfinamidines in good to excellent yields. The synthetic utility of the sulfinamidine products was further demonstrated through their conversion to other valuable sulfur(VI) compounds, such as sulfondiimidoyl fluorides, sulfinamidiate esters, and sulfonimidamides.

Carbon-carbon bond formation represents a key reaction in organic synthesis, resulting in paramount importance for constructing the carbon backbone of organic molecules. However, traditional metal-based catalysis, despite its advantages, often struggles with issues related to efficiency, selectivity, and sustainability. On the other hand, while biocatalysis offers superior selectivity due to an extraordinary recognition process of the substrate, the scope of its applicable reactions remains somewhat limited.

Integrating enzymatic reactions into computer-aided synthesis planning (CASP) should help devise more selective, economical, and greener synthetic routes. Herein we report the triple-transformer loop algorithm with biocatalysis (TTLAB) as a new CASP tool for chemo-enzymatic multistep retrosynthesis. Single-step retrosyntheses are performed using two triple transformer loops (TTL), one trained with chemical reactions from the US Patent Office (USPTO-TTL), the second one obtained by multitask transfer learning combining the USPTO dataset with preparative biotransformations from the literature (ENZR-TTL).
