The combination of different types of cobalt-catalyzed transformations in one-pot procedures is described. One of the key building blocks, a boron-functionalized isoprene derivative (boroprene), led to the realization of four-component reaction sequences comprising the cobalt-catalyzed Diels-Alder and a 1,4-hydrovinylation reaction. Eventually, a reaction sequence including a cobalt-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction, a cobalt-catalyzed 1,4-hydrovinylation, an allylboration, and a cobalt-catalyzed Alder-ene reaction led to a five-component one-pot reaction sequence in which five carbon-carbon bonds were formed in excellent regio- and diastereoselectivity to generate complex products in good overall yields.

Article Synopsis
- The text describes a new chemical reaction that combines allyl-substituted arenes with electron-deficient alkenes through a process involving cobalt-catalyzed hydrogen atom transfer (HAT).
- This method allows for the efficient formation of complex tetralin products while minimizing issues that usually arise from other reactions like hydrofluorination or radical polymerization.
- The reaction conditions are mild and compatible with various functional groups, making it a versatile tool for creating complex chemical structures that are difficult to achieve with traditional methods like Diels-Alder cycloadditions.

The ene-yne metathesis of alkenyl boronates with terminal alkynes is reported. These challenging metatheses were accomplished using a Grubbs catalyst bearing the cyclic alkyl amino carbene (CAAC) ligand, whereas -heterocyclic carbene (NHC) derived catalysts gave lower yields. Subsequent dienyl isomerization via a cobalt-catalyzed hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) furnished the more substituted dienyl boronate with high / ratios.

Polysubstituted cyclohexenes bearing 1,3 () substitution patterns are challenging to access using the Diels-Alder reaction (the - rule). Here, we report a cobalt-catalyzed reductive [5 + 1]-cycloaddition between a vinylcyclopropane and a vinylidene to provide methylenecyclohexenes bearing all- relationships. Vinylidene equivalents are generated from 1,1-dichloroalkenes using Zn as a stoichiometric reductant.

Diels-Alder reaction of 2-, 3- and 4-(phenylethynyl)quinolines and tetraphenylcyclopentadienone gave three regioisomeric 2,3,4,5,6-pentaphenyl-1-(quinolin-2-yl, -3-yl, and -4-yl)benzenes. Restricted rotation of the 3-yl and 4-yl substituted derivatives is observed between the central core and the substituents, resulting in propeller-shaped molecules. Likewise, 1,2-diquinolinyl-3,4,5,6-tetraphenylbenzenes with 3-yl,3-yl and 3-yl,4-yl connectivity were prepared.

Ryanodine (1) is a potent modulator of intracellular calcium release channels, designated as ryanodine receptors. The exceptionally complex molecular architecture of 1 comprises a highly oxygenated pentacyclic system with eleven contiguous stereogenic centers, which makes it a formidable target for organic synthesis. We identified the embedded C2 -symmetric tricyclic substructure within 1.
